LAMATA Hosts AFD Delegation for Project Review and Site Tour of Interchange Hubs Project

The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) today hosted a high-level review mission team from the French Development Agency (AFD) for a comprehensive review of ongoing transport infrastructure projects jointly funded by the Lagos State Government and the agency across the State.

The team, led by AFD Task Team Leader, Anne Chaussavoine and Alexandre Lorot assessed progress of key transport initiatives, including the Marina and Mile 2 Interchange Hubs and the ongoing Quality Bus Corridor (QBC) Project.

The team was received at the LAMATA headquarters by the Managing Director, Engr. (Mrs.) Abimbola Akinajo, who led a detailed project briefing and review session. Following the meeting, the joint team embarked on a site inspection of the Marina Interchange construction project.

When completed, the Marina Interchange Hub will feature a modern transit terminal, dedicated cycling lanes, and pedestrian walkways aimed at promoting non-motorized transportation, improving connectivity, and enhancing urban mobility within the metropolis.

Speaking after the inspection, AFD Task Team Leader, Anne Chaussavoine commended the progress made on the project despite earlier challenges encountered along the shoreline section of the construction works. She observed that the pedestrian walkways linking Marina are approaching completion and expressed confidence that the main transit buildings would be substantially advanced before her next official visit.

The visit underscores the strong partnership between LAMATA and AFD in delivering sustainable, integrated, and efficient transportation infrastructure that supports Lagos State's vision for a modern and accessible urban transit system.
