I have political will to tackle traffic gridlock - Ambode

Posted: 26 Nov 2015 07:35 AM PST

Lagos State Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has assured the people of the State of his strong political will to tackle the traffic crisis in the state. Ambode stated this at the Traffic Management and Transportation Summit organised by the State Government in Lagos today November 26th. He said as a government, his administration is keenly committed to make Lagos work for all, and that effective traffic management, for him, is a good place to start.
He stressed that there is need for practical and innovative solutions to address the traffic challenges confronting the State to deliver immediate dividends and future aspirations.
"Lagos, in many ways, is a victim of its own success as many people leave other states and travel to Lagos seeking better opportunities. More Nigerians want to reside in Lagos and this obviously comes with some challenges. As one of the leading commercial centres and an emerging City-State, we need to go back to the drawing board and agree on how our transportation sector can be effectively and efficiently operated to support the kind of trade and investment we want to continually attract. We need to collectively examine how transportation sector can improve public sector delivery through better institutional framework, quality transport infrastructure and then tackle wasteful and socially harmful transport patterns. You will agree with me that the ease of travelling, mobility and communication are critical fuels for our State economic engine. As a Government that is keen on promoting business and creating wealth opportunities for our residents, we are committed to seeking and funding substantial and comprehensive solutions to traffic challenges, therefore we are ready to take tough recommendations you come out with. We owe it to the people to ensure Lagos works for all. Tackling traffic is a good place to start; a good place to begin the significant change that our people expect from us. Let us make Lagos work for us all" he said.
