Blue Line phase 2 is targeted for passenger service
The Lagos transport authority has stated a target of completing the 14-kilometre Mile 2 to Okokomaiko extension's infrastructure by the end of 2026 with passenger operations in the first quarter of 2027. This is a declared programme target, not an achievement and not a forecast.
Planned — a programme target or declared plan, from a source that declared it. Never a prediction.
