Lagos Announces New Public Transport Initiatives
Getting around Lagos is about to get easier. The Lagos City Council has approved a new Strategic Plan for Urban Transport, focused on improving its municipal bus system known locally as “A Onda”. The upgrade includes more buses, enhanced weekend service, and a roadmap for cleaner, more reliable transport over the next seven years.
Why This Matters for Holidaymakers
For anyone booking Algarve holiday rentals, reliable transport can make or break the experience. With Lagos being very walkable, the new bus plan adds flexibility for guests who prefer not to rent cars. Key benefits include:
- Expanded service coverage, including improved weekend routes
- Cleaner and more frequent buses for modern travel
- Better access to beaches, restaurants, and amenities
- Reduced traffic and parking stress in the city center
These improvements are especially valuable for families, remote workers, and travellers seeking longer stays.
A Boost for Property Owners
Enhanced transport infrastructure doesn’t just improve convenience, it also helps to boost property appeal. Rentals located along upgraded bus lines become more attractive to:
- Guests without cars
- Older visitors and less mobile visitors
- Eco-conscious holidaymakers
- Seasonal renters staying beyond the summer peak
The expansion of services is part of Lagos’s broader push to shift from a summer-only destination towards a year-round community which extends demand and stabilises rental income.
