The Lagos State Government has unveiled plans to install closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras at key transportation points, including interchanges, bus stops, freight yards, and taxi parks, over the next two years. 

The initiative is detailed in the recently released Lagos State Transport Policy, which outlines a series of actions adopted by the government to address the city’s interrelated mobility challenges and achieve its transportation goals. 

Also, the State Government is set to expand the ‘Cowry’ ticket integration, currently used by state-regulated public transport services, to include other modes of public transportation.

The implementation of the ‘Cowry’ payment system across various public transportation modes in Lagos is expected to take place within two years.
