Blue Line increases passenger capacity as Lagos gets new trains

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State has unveiled three new train sets for the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue Line at the National Theatre Station.

With the arrival, the state increases its passenger capacity as each set includes four cars.

According to Sanwo-Olu, this will directly improve the commute for thousands of Lagosians, reducing wait times, speeding up journeys, and making the system more reliable overall.

“Our goal is to have trains arriving every 10 minutes.

“I’m deeply grateful to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Federal Government for their strong support. From procurement to delivery, their backing made this possible.

“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.

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