He said: “This infrastructure reflects our commitment to continuously enhancing public transportation systems, strengthening connectivity, and improving the overall experience for commuters. We are dedicated to taking ongoing steps to advance and modernise transportation across the State.”

Sanwo-Olu also disclosed that his Government was building two additional interchange hubs in Marina and Mile 2, while another bus terminal is at the advanced stage of construction in Iyana Ipaja axis.

At the event, the Governor also revealed that the State was expecting the arrival of new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses and electric buses by the third quarter of the year to enhance bus services.

The addition, Sanwo-Olu said, would expand the State’s current BRT fleet, while also increasing the availability of buses and reducing waiting times at bus stops for commuters.

Also speaking, Managing Director of Lagos Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority (LAMATA), Mrs. Abimbola Akinajo, noted that sustainable infrastructure remained the backbone that would make seamless connectivity possible in a transport system.

She said: “Bus terminals are important because they offer central location for passengers to board and connect to other forms of transportation. To date, the Lagos Government has provided bus terminals in Ikeja, Oshodi, Ajah, Oyingbo, Yaba, Ojota, Ifako Ijaiye and now at Abule Egba. Iyana Ipaja bus terminal will soon join the list.”
