Skyway String Transport Technology wants to move passengers from Lagos to Abuja in 45 minutes with its fast cable light rail project that is designed to reduce gridlocks along the route .

The light rail will travel along the over 500 km geographical distance between Lagos and Abuja at constant speed of up to 150km per hour in about 3hrs,but has capacity to accelerate up to 500km per hour.

Their aim is to reduce the rate of traffic hold up and roads accidents along the Lagos-Abuja route.The multi-million dollars project will also boost tourism through sightseeing as well as reduce travel time .



The Regional Head of the Company , Mr. Arogundade Samson,stated at a gathering in Lagos to sensitive members of the public on the project that Skyway String Transport Technology “is fully committed,possess the technical know how and financial capability to deliver the project in good time”, as long as it enjoys support and cooperation of the Lagos and the Federal Government.



The high-speed transport system is eco-friendly, comfortable ,safer and much cheaper when compared to all existing solutions. 



When compared to other forms of transportation, a non-stop flight time from Lagos to Abuja is between 50 mins and 1hr 15 mins while the 755.4 km  (470.2 miles) route through Sagamu-Benin expressway takes between 11 to 13 hours by car.

What do you think?

I hope this will one day manifest , cos Naija matter na easier said than done.

ok

Good. I don't want to hear APC or PDP. Though the APC government attract the investment. But as long as Nigeria is moving forward, am happy. Thanks to PDP, thanks to APC, thanks to lagosians

it makes a whole lot of senese, if not another Avenue to siphon our money.

We go dey alive to see this in Nigeria??

This is a welcome development

It can't work, with our unstable and epileptic electric power supply

GOOD IDEA IF OUR GREEDY POLITICIANS WILL LET THIS SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY.

How many years will this take?

For real

Doing it wouldn't be bad but after they do some site seeing and investigation

They will end the project, plenty people have had this plan, no be by drawing straight line from Lagos to Abuja, so many things makes company that have this idea to change their minds

People will go and start stealing the cables, there is no power to power it, if you do its own power generation, people will tap the current and spoil it, they will put more than the required number of people inside a cabin, they will mess it up in a year, they will be rapes, robbery and deaths, some will bomb it's support beem, militants will attack it's stations, I swear eh, they should just forget it

Good one....

Hmm, hope this one can be achieved o, not the all talk n drama and no action.

Rivers monorail loading for zombies

I will cheerfully donate 100 years of expectations.. at least my great grand son will know the history started from us

Sitdon dey luk

Always on paper.....

Dead before conception

Good one, can we get there one day ?

I pray the government should not be part of this. Our government does not like good things like this. They will surely bring politics. like the past adminstration started. past adminstration abandoned it. past past and no future

This cannot work in Nigeria

Talk is cheap.

Till it comes to fruition.

They would reduce the speed to 45kph because of Fulani cattle herders herding all around every nook and cranny of Nigeria...
Point is, this would probably end up being a half baked project...

The govt might frustrate the actualization of this project at the end of the day, a nice initiative tho

what we need is mass transit, it doesn't look efficient
