dc.descriptionThe Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) on behalf of the Lagos State Government (LSG) has initiated the process of creating a Non-Motorised Transport (NMT) Policy to guide the implementation of high quality transport systems. It aims to create a policy environment that supports increased accessibility by prioritising the use of walking, cycling, and public transport. The Policy seeks to achieve a more equitable allocation of road space by incorporating a focus on NMT and public transport (PT) in the planning, design, managing, and budgeting stages of transport projects. In adopting a NMT-PT based approach, Lagos aims to stabilise the use of personal motor vehicles (PMVs), thereby improving health, safety, and environmental quality, and enhancing social equity and economic activityen
