The governor speaking on a jetty in Agboju area of Festac, Mile2 in Lagos stated that the State Government is poised to making transportation an ease for all Lagosians. He did not fail to mention the traffic laws as well as the motorbike restrictions.
He said injuries resulting from road accidents have reduced from over 500 in September 2012 to about a 100 in January 2013. The various deaths resulting from motorbike accidents reduced from above 10 in each month from September 2012 to zero in January 2013.
He said the Ado-badore water transport system will be completed by March and will be effective from then while that of Osbourne will be completed later. Eight jetties from the regime of Lateef Jakande are to be refurbished to efficient capacity.
He stated that the waterway is a viable alternative means of transportation as well as a strategic way of easing traffic congestion with standard safety guards and facilities.
The governor tasks all Lagosians to obey the traffic laws as they are for their benefits.
