Brilliant idea supported by a brilliant video. As Oliver Twist, I believe the government can add elevators to ease the lift for some elderly and physically challenged people. I've always dreamt about public access elevators in places like Oshodi and Ikeja for a start. It should encourage more people to avoid running across the expressway. Even if you have to pay a small maintenance token like for public toilets.

If i am the governor of Lagos State, I will make sure I turn the city into the best city in Aftica. All the dilapidated roads will be fixed, mark and traffic light, all the sidewalk will be tiles and plant greenery in every Street and make sure the zebra crossing is enforce. Based on what I saw in the video, the city is still more like I left it 20 years ago. The only change is the rail system.

i'll be frank, i don't use bridges ever cuz they're just a hassle to climb(unless KAI are there), why climb them when i can literally cut right through the road in the shortest possible time? just add zebra crossings with like pedestrian lights with timers or something. But you do have a point, this bridge is ridiculously long, so much so that i don't even see the point, it might just become a homeless/beggars encampment in a year(and who is going to maintain and sweep it?😂). anyhow sha they are doing something, we'll take anything at this point🤣

It is easier to criticize. So you think it is convenient for the govt to waste money on the long length and the height of the bridge if it is not necessary? Try to consider that some articulated trucks do carry items whose heights are almost competing with the pedestrian bridge and with the slim space that is left because of the fly overbridge, the length is key.

You do have a valid point there bro. I think the best way for govt to make more money to repay the loan and better finance the metroline is to expand it which is what they are currently doing. For example, if it gets to FESTAC, you will see more patronage. Also, please take note that the train is usually empty during off peak period and always full during the peak period which is in the morning and evening time. Most bloggers go to do their coverage during off peak period that's why you see less people on their video. In conclusion, more works need to be done. God bless 🙏🏽
