Lagos to regulate public bus operators

He said a pilot test had been carried out on the Lekki-Epe
corridor and inspected by the Ministry of Transportation to identify the limitations
of seamless traffic flow along the expressway and adjourning roads.

“Systematic frameworks to address these challenges have been
mapped out, which include the deployment of high-capacity buses on the corridor
as stated in the Lagos Transport Policy and the Bus Route Network,” Giwa said.

He said mini buses would be registered and re-allocated to
inner routes and an e-ticketing system would be introduced.

He urged transport operators to register with the Ministry
of Transportation within two weeks, adding that registered operators will be
allotted routes.

Giwa said that any operator who violates the regulations
implemented would be fined and would forfeit their vehicles if they ignored the
notice of their fines.
