The Lagos State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotoso, has announced that the Redline Rail from Agbado to Iddo will begin a week-long test run.

Omotoso made the revelation at a press briefing on Thursday, organized to kick off the 2024 Ministerial Press Briefing by the State’s Ministries, Directorates, and Agencies.

The annual program allows members of the State Executive Council to report on their stewardship to Lagosians.

During the week-long test run, various groups and stakeholders will be invited to ride the train and experience the service it will provide.

Omotoso also highlighted plans to address connecting roads to rail and ferry terminals to facilitate easy access.

He also revealed that foreign investors will arrive next week to discuss the Fourth Mainland Bridge and the Lekki Airport, which are set to change Lagos’ economy.

The T.H.E.M.E.S Plus Agenda’s developmental pillar remains central to the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu Administration’s mandate to deliver dividends of democracy to Lagosians
