LASG RELEASES PLANS TO RESTRUCTURE UNREGULATED PUBLIC TRANSPORT BUS OPERATIONS


The Government has called for the collaboration of public transport bus operators as it releases the restructuring plans to improve the commuting experience in the state.

 

The Special Adviser to Governor BABAJIDE SANWO-OLU on Transportation, SOLA GIWA, said this in a meeting between the Ministry of Transportation with Lagos Metropolitan Transport Authority (LAMATA) and bus operators on the Bus Reform Initiative program.

 

GIWA described the current bus operations as chaotic hence the need for collaboration to successfully regulate and integrate the informal transport sector into the state’s Bus Reform Initiative.

 

Using the Lekki/Epe corridor as a pilot test, he explained that the corridor had been inspected by the Ministry of Transportation and LAMATA to identify limitations of seamless traffic flow along the expressway and adjourning roads.

 

The special adviser noted that the restructuring plan would be implemented in phases, urging transport operators who intend to key into the restructuring program to come to the Ministry of Transportation to register within the next two weeks.

 

GIWA also warned that any operator who contravenes the regulations implemented would be fined and would forfeit their vehicles if they ignored the notice of their fines.
