This is as the governor marks second anniversary of the Blue Line’s commercial operations, which commenced in September 2023 on the Marina–Mile 2 corridor.
Governor Sanwo-Olu made bold to say, since the the launch of the project, there hasn’t been any accident reports claiming lives.
He, however, encouraged Lagosians to take a Train ride on Thursday to enjoy the comfort the Blue line provides.
Sanwo-Olu said,
“In just two years, the Blue Line has transported more than five million passengers safely. Trains now operate at 10-minute intervals, completing over 90 trips daily. What used to be long, stressful journeys are now faster and more convenient.
“This project belongs to all of us. It is your trust and belief in a greater Lagos that has made this progress possible. To mark the second anniversary, I am pleased to announce a 50 percent fare reduction on the Blue Line for tomorrow, Thursday, September 4, 2025. If you haven’t experienced the Blue Line yet, I encourage you to take a ride and see what we’ve built together,”.
He, further, assured residents that the state government remained committed to expanding infrastructure that would make mobility across Lagos easier, safer, and faster.
“Our journey is far from over. Step by step, we are creating the Lagos we all desire,” he added.
