The Managing Director, Planet Projects, Mr. Biodun Otunola, has expressed optimism that the Oshodi Transport Interchange to be commissioned by President Muhammadu Buhari today would ease the incessant gridlock in the state.
He said the interchange with three terminals, each sitting on 30,000 sq metres, when operational, would serve at peak an average of one million people. “Initially, each of the terminals would serve 300,000 passengers daily and every hour, 300 buses would be departing from the terminals.” He said for passengers not to wait endlessly for buses, two layover parks were created with the capacity to accommodate 70 buses, waiting to load at every point. He also said there would be room for park and ride, the reason a park was created, in addition to a taxi park so that the buses coming from the layover do not obstruct free flow of traffic when they need to connect Terminals 1 and 2.
