Sanwo-Olu commissions Mushin Overpass, the 5th along Lagos Red Line route

The Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Saturday, commissioned the Red Line Overpass in the Mushin area of the state.

The flyover is the last of the five overpasses built by the state government along the Red Line Rail corridor.

Sanwo-Olu was accompanied to the project site by his deputy, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, and members of the state executive council.

The flyover is expected to ensure free vehicular movement in the area.

The governor has previously commissioned the flyovers built along the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Red Line in the Yaba, Oyingbo, Ikeja, and Agege areas of the state.
