The document summarizes transportation challenges in Lagos, Nigeria. It notes that Lagos is Africa's largest city with over 20 million inhabitants, and its economy contributes significantly to Nigeria's GDP. However, the city faces severe transportation problems due to traffic congestion, inadequate public transit, and high transportation costs that impact social and economic activity. Currently, over 70% of transportation is by informal and unregulated buses, while water transport accounts for just 2% of transportation despite Lagos having extensive waterways. The document proposes developing ferry transportation to complement other modes to help address the city's mobility issues.
