Nice one. This will go a long way to reduce traffic at the Lagos-Ibadan expressway. Hopefully the railway line would be completed before the end of 2020.


Meanwhile, ladies, instead of the regular sanitary pad, why not use the medicated panty-liner. See my signature for more details.

Hmm panty liner, why dont you allow them to be pant-less, they need to vent spleen.

@autoJoshNG always do your homework before posting.

The railine is not the first standard guage. Itakpe warri Ajaokuta rail is what? What of Abuja - Kaduna segment of Lagos Kano standard guage rail?

Good work, but instead of clearing the rubbish from the track they pile it all to one side? Look at the state of the existing track! Give it a few weeks and the new one will look exactly like that.

Railways should be fenced off. In the UK walking on a railway is a tresspassable offence unless at a level crossing.

I do think $1.6billion is too much for this project...

OP, Lagos-Ibadan is NOT the first or only double standard gauge rail line in Nigeria...
Abuja-Kaduna is double standard gauge (and I also think Itakpe-Ajaokuta-Warri is as well).

The Federal Government is currently constructing a railway line connecting Lagos to Ibadan.

The railway line is going to be the first Double Standard railway line in Nigeria.

The 156 kilometers railway track is being built according to Chinese standard and technology.

The project which will cost $1.6billion dollars has employed the services of about 7000 Nigerians in the construction.

This design of this railway line is based on traffic volume forecast of over 3.2 million tons of goods/cargoes per annum, while the passenger services can take 16 pairs of passenger trains.

The project includes the construction of eight  (cool railway stations and Apapa and Ebute-Metta and Intermediate stations at Agege, Kajola, Papalanto, Abeokuta, Omi-Adio.

The station at Olodo is a passing station while the station at Ibadan is an intermediate station with technical operation.


The services for the locomotive workshop, rolling stock depot and marshaling yards will be located at Kajola, Ogun state.


The extension of the Lagos-Ibadan rail line to the Lagos seaport will significantly enhance the export and import trade of the country. This project is multi-functional for both passenger and freight services connecting three states-Lagos, Ogun and Oyo.

The railway line in the nearest future will be extended from Ibadan to Ilorin, Minna, Kaduna, and Kano and will link the Federal Capital Territory via Kaduna.

Meanwhile, construction of the railway track has recently commenced at the Yaba.

I was about to ask if you were Igbo but decided to go tru your profile n look what i found hate filled rhetoric symbol of foolish Ipob n PDP supporters. For a Nigeria that PDP was unable to construct a single track in 16 year but Buhari 3 airport terminals and several completed rail projects, I will say your father is not entitled to make a comment on how slow or fast the project his.

People like you need to be beaten to stupor for having an opinion of whatever form concerning development like this, development the party you support never brought about in Nigeria.



welcomeback:
the work at yaba is a bit slow compared to Ogun state.. i was at Odeda LGA in Ogun state few weeks ago and i can say that the fast pace of work there is massive.. i believe we can do better and see its completion as soon as possible...

Now that elections are over, I wonder what wailers will say about this project.

They are saying it is because Amaechi wants to remain in Buhari's cabinet. You know them na...they will always find something to say.
