LAMATA releases new BRT fares following 13% increase

The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) has released new fares for the Bus Rapid Transit and standard routes, following the recent 13 percent hike in services under the Bus Reform Initiative.

This was disclosed on the official X (formerly Twitter) handle, while noting that the changes in the price of bus fares will take effect from March 2, 206.
