The Lagos –Badagry expressway is a Federal Government road which is currently being expanded to 10 lanes to accommodate a BRT lane and light rail through collaborative efforts of the state govt, the federal govt and international financial agencies.
Julius Berger is handling the 10 lane road segment while China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), is handling the Light Rail section of the road.

post my comment oooooooo linds
is it that i am not seeing well because i see people already selling wares at the rail line and even one person is excreting by the lane,,infact they should watch these people from now lest they mess up the whole place with dirt!
Welcomed development.
So does Julius Berger still get paid in crude oil rather than cash?just curious.
I wonder why anyone would want to turn rail tracks to a trading site.
Thank GOD u said its fed, BRF doesn't do anytin again since he knws his tym is almost up.

Pls Get Enlightened! Stop being dumb commenting for jst d sake of it! Rather be constructive in ur criticisms
Why's that?

Nice one..
Nice one
No body shd talk about charming pics again, it seems linda lyks dem, til all of us start 2 use pics dat appear sexual even tho dey r 3 frogs up side down or some shit d likes of pc com up with.
Development starts from a point and expands. It's like a ripple effect, the only problem is corruption acting as a buffer! Good job Fashola. #FasholaFor President
Good Good Good. Eko oni baje...".Fasola is Working "in Jenifa's Voice"
Hmm Sane mind, u can lie eh. Wich psn is excreting dia. Abi ur eye na wizzard eye. Haba
We have to thank Gov. Fashola for his numerous achievements here in Lagos, though they says to whom much is given much is expected, the Gov. should pls consider to give Lagos/Abeokuta a face lift as well before his tenure expires in the 2yrs, because living that route in the hands of the PDP ruling party, is like barbing on side of the head and leave the other to look like a mad mans look, otherwise the unkempt side might rubbish the other side. the populations on that side of the state is becoming something else day by day since Oshodi axis was opened up.
Dis Gh boy dey call Prince juju u no knw say u go remove dat ur stupid DP abi ? Oloshi
You see how stupid some Nigerians are? The are already selling there stupid shit on this new road, when the govt brings in bulldozers to crush their wares, they will say the govt of the day is inhuman. Useless Nigerians, I wonder what the markets are for. The never like anything good
High Definition Road.lol
Anon 4:06 if u r a muslim, u just proved dat d islam is not a peaceful religion!!
Welcomed development....d right way to lead,show us crediblity
When they said light rail, u have all overlooked the sensible part . Where are they going to get the light from? Jes asking
You have all overlooked the main point here . They said light rail , where will they get light from ? Jes asking
Wow this is a great development. Fashola is working while as resident, we don't skip tax.Real Secrets to weightloss and healthy eating
u don't appreciate what u have at hand until u loose it. Lagosians and Nigeria will not know the value of Fashola until another govt comes in. fash keep up the good work eko oni baje ooo
This is a Federal project. Please let us stop misleading people. It is PDP not APC inspired. The same tracks are being built across the country: Kano, Nassarawa, Abuja, even your native east. Abeg know better, Linda.
Anonymous lol chai ur reply to sane mind, so on point!
Na wa for una oo
Ooooooooo!!!! More of this stupid ibo people will see this now and flocking into lagos now..as if we didn't already have enough problems! Abuse all u want I'm not coming back here..I've said my piece #middlefinger

Linda the profile picture of one biggest commentator “★★PRINCE CHARMING™★★ said...” is making your readers uncomfortable jare. Abeg
Keep watching. Ogun state will probably surpass Lagos. Ogun is already coming close to Lagos in terms of number of industries.
Lagos is surely gonna be transformed into a mega city soonest! New York of naija...lol
Nija!!! Sooo many misconceptions!! 'Shrugs'
Liber I have a problem my tummy is becoming big..wot can I do I no longer look like a lady bcos of d big tummy help! Help!! Help!!!
Linda get ur facts right!!!!! That's less than one tenth of d road, and all that has been done in d past 4 years....... This is a world bank sponsored loan and the untold hardship ds construction has inflicted on ppl around the whole orile to badagry axis is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!! They are toooooo slow, they work only once or twice a week, sooo many accidents because of no road, their blood will be on those connected with this construction, anyhow, All of them, they will continue to pay for inflicting ds hardship on citizens
This is neither Lag or FG project It's been done by ECOWAS. Have you seen what the FG is doing from Apapa to Oshodi currently at Cele.
The 7up between Lag(APC) and FG(PDP)is clear while Lag(APC) engages in wash and wrapping up the media to sell the wash wash stories to all ,FG(PDP) is doing the real thing and not engaging in any prpoaganda
Still some mumu ll say GEJ is not working?
I love Fashola, he s d only tru Governor dat m seein.
I'm tellin u to throw away ur rotten n bias mind..mtcheeeeeeeeeeew!

Thanks to the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Agency (LAMATA) and of-course under the leadership of BRF.The blue line getting ready......plus those traders tho, task-force don tireeeeeee.
@Mich,Julius Berger have not been paid in crude oil since IBB's time,its good to know someone even knows this little details.that was one of the biggest scams ever pulled in this country but not every1 knew about it.
linda notin gud has been done there ooooo,this is a fake pics ooo!
As if this project isn't partly funded by F.G and ECOWAS;leaving Nigeria my ass.Fashola is a mediocre governor that thrives on very shallow achievements that elicit accolades quicker.

Fashola well done linda
Linda post ma comment cos yu are fund of not duin dat
Do they have it in mind to have an over head bridge or a subway?
Really... I feel sad about all this dichotomy in NY . I just dated a Muslim girl here in New York and her family is originally from Egypt. Broke it off for other reasons- meen had to concentrate on my books and so on but we r great friends or so I believe. I think Nigeria's problem is a huge cultural backwardness that is unprecedented .

Eko o ni baje!
Kudos to Fashola
Personally I think d railway line shouldn't have been erected in between d lanes rather it should have been erected on the extreme end on either of d 2 sides just like d one on agege motor rd. This way it has been done has disadvantages to pedestrians. Just my thoughts
laudable effort. eko o ni baje
Oga luskii na wa O, na so vex catch u "be patient went reading"..Nigga you should go back to school
This Luski must be a retard

Fucking retards!
Lol @ode pataki!
I dare say that with all his flaws Fashola has proven to be one of the few visionary Governors of this administration who dare to do something new. Unlike many state Governor's who are clueless!
Its naija
Come to my state Delta state, where u will see my governor trying to construct interbua roundabout for 4 years! Lolzzzzz then u guys will appreciate Fashola...
Must u always generalize? As I hav said b4 my religion is perfect but I am not perfect if I do anytin blame me nd not my religion. Do u tink is every muslims dat kills? If u want 2 b tru 2 ur sef I knw u knw of some muslims dat ar more humane dan ur fellow xtians n wat abt dos pple killin inocent peeps in ND ar dey not xtians so blame dos pple not xtianity cos I knw jesus and prophet Muhammed didn't preach violence.

Good development. Hope it doesn't take too long to complete.
Anon 4:43pm stop eating too much akpu..
My advice is for the construction firms to build a light fence to prevent people from trading on the rail lines, if the picture posted is very visible, am very sure it's one of the Lagos woman trading on the rail lines. Secondly, the govt of Lagos should also spend money in enlightening the common man to keep his/her environment clean especially infrastructures place to help the common man.
Anon 6:41pm, I could be wrong but I think anon 3:48pm was joking
@Anon 4:37 You are a Fucking Bastard, God punish you and your stupid tribe.
Good job, but health and safety should be considered before all those hazardous construction.
Anon 4.37 I'm sure ur d nonentity posting negative stuffz about ibos on this blog. obviously ur not well upstairs. go seek help u crazy psychopath

You r really a big fool!! @ least he is gettn smth done!! Idiot!!
Asin enhhh... Its sad walahi
The person saying it has to be designed like it is on agege motor road obviously has a shallo mind.smh
Linda, get your facts right. Julius Berger are done with theirs which is the construction of Mile 2 bridge. They did Orile as well but due to some political circumstances, they shift hands to the Chinese construction company which at the moment are projecting the way forward for handling the 10 lanes and of course, the rail lines. They work like snails. I live close to this area so don't sit down at home, watching TV while some dude give you false news.
Where did u get dat info? D pain people go tru every day on dis same road. Better expirence than to say.
So umm, @luskii, the word 'children' also includes teenagers. And I don't see why teenagers can't read LIB. And even if its only adults that read this blog, it's still not a good enough reason for someone to use an avatar that appears to be a provocative picture. Can you tell me that the motive is entirely pure? Why not use pictures of pigs from a clear direct angle? And as for you that started a heated tribal argument, that was rather primitive and makes you look uneducated. And I doubt that you are educated anyway...in other news, I pray that Nigeria keeps moving forward.
Nigerians Lack basic research culture and getting the right information. Plus Linda is not helping matters too.
The project is not a federal government project. Its a world bank project, Ecowas and Lagos state government project. In 2011 durring the flag off of the project and the world bank wanted to release the funds for the project. The Lagos state government took FG to court to prevent the federal government from Hijacking the funds. In fact, the fight between lagos and FG was a major reason the project took off late.
The world bank fund was for the expansion of the lanes from lagos to Benin to cut across the border between Nigeria and Benin. This is to ease trade between Nigeria and Benin and to remove all barriers. I even heard the Benin axis of the project is almost completed. Lagos state government introdued the light rail line in the project. The rail line is financed by Lagos state government.
Please Linda, before you post anything regarding the government, do your research and put out the true information. You are doing Nigerians a deservice if you keep spreading fake information.
ONCE AGAIN, THERE IS NO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT KOBO IN THIS PROJECT. DONT COME AND TELL US IN SOME YEARS TIME HOW OIL MONEY WAS USED TO FINANCE THE PROJECT.
This is strictly Lagos state and World bank grants money. The federal government is involved because the project cuts across the borders.
Linda seriously this picture is gonna deceive a whole lot of people.This people are not doing anything..Right now i dunno if its Julius Berger or the Chinese people...cos i believe its not Julius Berger and to tell u the truth this Chinese people are not doing anything.from mile two going toward agboju,alakija,abule ado,then get to trade fair...if u meet the traffic there u will pity pple,before u can now get to barracks towards Agric,volks and iyanaoba....i just feel pity for pple staying towards that area..U wake up as early as 3 or $am and ur home by 12 or 1am ready to prepare for work the next day...most times d parents with children don't even get to see their kids from day to day.And what is the cause of all this?BAD ROAD.
A pot hole on the road can make u stay on that road for hours before u get to ur destination and those china pple r there.just to pour sand or stones and cover up the place for the main time before they finally get to that main point of the road is a problem for them.They watch pple suffer,treckn long distances everyday and don't care.Even the govt that gave them the contract don't even check up on them to see if they are going on with the work or not.Sometimes i wonder if they fly pass that road.And the day they'll finally pass that road..they will get all the police and army to block the already blocked road so they can pass.This Government is wicked.and after they pass,that is the end.They don't have a say cos they employed cheap labour to do the job...this Chinese people are just digging up holes everywhere,blocking all the alternatives routes and not doing anything...
Linda,pple staying from Alakija going down to iyana-oba,okoko area on badagry express way are suffering on that road.
When will it end?pls someone should read this and help us do something fast.
Pls Linda post my comment oooooo..Thank you!!!
Rubbish... maintenance culture is zero
Rubbish...maintenance culture is zero
So u are feeling informed right?? Add that to your CV...mumu.
LINDA, THE FG HAS NO HABDS IN THIS PROJECT. IN FACT THE FG HAS BEEN FRUATRATING THIS PROJECT NOT TO SEE THE LIGHT OF THE DAT
People, kudos should NOT go to the Lagos State Govt for the rail road. Rather, it is one of FG's projects through the SURE- P. The Lagos- Kano rail line was rehabilitated with the SURE- P funds and commissioned on the 20th Dec, 2012. Not enough credit goes to SURE- P for their efforts. Its ridiculous.
Hahhahahahahahaha!!!! Why Is it paining you ibo idiots so much?????? Hahahahahahaha
Am indifferent about the number of persons proclaiming their support for PC on this blog. What we cannot deny is fact that several persons have have raised their voices in condemnation of the misleading and unwholesome image put up by PC. The attention of LIB must be drawn to these genuine complains to at least advise PC in a manner that Africans are civilised and decent people.
...Sure-P ko, Sour-PeeCee ni. You are trying to tell us that this project is going on in different parts of Nigeria and nothing special about the one in Lagos, so Linda is stupid. Tell you what, the overall excitment here from numerous comments shows how ridiculously idiotic and hopeless you are...Ewu Congo!
Our Leaders are very wicked.c ow d masses r suffering on dat road xpecially 4rm underbrigde(trade fair) 2 iyanaoba. make una use,una brain do little maintenance.before dis confused contractor go reach der.

In your dreams. Ogun ko, Shopona ni.

O ba furo re. Retard.
Please oh! Where is dat? D Akure of a place? Is it in Lagos too
@sane mind, it's obviously those dirty yoruba folks cos all they know is street hawking and littering their environment. Retarded and dirty rqc
