LOCATION

Lagos metropolitan area

SCALE

Multi-modal plan, metro-wide

STATUS

Adopted

You cannot plan one corridor in Lagos without planning all of them.

The Strategic Transport Master Plan sets the long-horizon network for Lagos across rail, bus, water and road — what gets built, in what order, and what each mode is expected to carry.

A plan at this scale lives or dies on its demand model. Every corridor decision downstream, and every funding case, is argued from the same modelled base.

Phasing and investment programme

Sequencing the network into fundable packages with a defined delivery order.
