The Lagos State Government has assured that its Rail Mass Transit Red Line is on course for the planned unveiling in March with all of its infrastructure nearing completion.
The MD, Akinajo said the tracks for the rail system were 95 per cent completed while the eight train stations being built as part of the Red Line infrastructure were “literally completed.”
“We are implementing eight stations and that is all the way from Agbado. We have a station at Agbado, we have a station in Iju, we have a station in Agege, we have a station in Ikeja, we have a station in Mushin, we have a station in Oshodi, Oyingbo and Yaba. Now, all those stations as a point of update are literally completed. We have most of them, except Yaba, 99.9 per cent completed.
“Yaba, at the moment, is about 89 per cent completed. Now, from where we’re sitting, that means that we are confident and comfortable that we will meet the deadline that Mr Governor has given us. In terms of the track work, we’re done. If you remember, this is the one line that we’re sharing with the NRC tracks,” she said.
