 The Lagos State Government has announced the Blue Line Rail will start commercial operations on Mondays, September 4, 2023. The Blue Line Rail will move from Marina to Mile 2. Plus, the corresponding love of Oyadokou tells us more in this report. All is now set for the commercial operations of the Lagos Blue Rail Line from Marina to Mile 2. And as you can see, we are on board the train from the National Theatre Station, Igomu, down to Marina. We took off from Marina Station and road National Theatre Station, Igomu and back to Marina. It was a smooth and pleasurable one void of the usual vehicular traffic associated with transiting within Lagos State. With factor-fitted air conditioner, the Lagos State Government's Blue Line Rail will begin commercial operation on September 4 with Governor Babajide Sawolu expected to be the first passenger. Abimbola Akinaju is the Managing Director, Lagos State Metropolitan Area Transport Authority, Lamata. She speaks more on the takeoff date. When we start, we expect to see nothing less than 150 passengers. Now, 150,000, sorry. That does not mean you're all doing from here to Mile 2. You know, some people will start. I'm only going to Alaba. Some will enter from Alaba. So all of that I expect between 150,000 to 175,000. That's all my feasibility. One day, one day. So that's what we are expecting to go through our system in a day. Because you know, somebody can do this arithmetic and say, Madam, how is that possible? You're only doing 76 trips. But it is not everybody that will start from Marina and go to. So if each train carries, even if you're doing life, each train carries a thousand. The operations, according to Akinaju, will start with 12 trips for two weeks, and later increased to some of the six trips per day into Shadows. Money pick hours, 6.30 a.m. to 10.00 a.m. and 4.30 p.m. to 9.00 p.m. evening pick period. The good news is, because Mr. Governor announced that everybody traveling on Lagos-Regulated System will get a 50% discount, that 50% discount will apply to the rail until in his generosity he has included the rail system as part of those who will enjoy this 50%. So that means that whilst the trip, the maximum trip is 750 Naira, the maximum the passenger will pay until the governor completes this palliative is 375 Naira. The full length of the trip, Marina to my to, will cost 750 Naira, but you are expected to pay 375 Naira only using your car record. A 50% discount announced by Governor Baba Jidesawulu on all B.R.O.T. rides. Love Ikuku Uyeduku, Plus TV News.
