The governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has unveiled three new train sets for the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Blue Line.

Announcing this via his official social media page, the governor disclosed that each of the nee train set comprises four cars and would enhance the experience for commuters. He said that the upgrade will benefit thousands of Lagos residents as they would no longer waste their times and their travel durations would also be shortened, now. He emphasized that the goal is to make sure that trains arrive every 10 minutes.

He said; “Today, I unveiled three new train sets for the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue Line at the National Theatre Station

“Each set includes four cars, and with this addition, we are doubling our current passenger capacity on the Blue Line,” Sanwo-Olu wrote.

Extending gratitude to federal government under President Bola Tinubu for support in making the project a reality, Sanwo-Olu stated that there would be unveiling of more trains before the year ends, for LRMT red line.

“Before the end of the year, we’ll receive new trains for the Red Line which will have twice the capacity of the Blue Line trains. Construction on Phase 2 of the Blue Line (Mile 2 to Okokomaiko) is also progressing steadily.

“We’re building infrastructure and a better future for urban mobility in Lagos. And we’re just getting started,” he said.
