The upgrade will enable us to achieve an efficient level of service along the corridor It will also enable us minimise bus bunching and accommodate increased fleet which the planned

BRT will generate. The consultant, amongst other things, will:

(1) Prepare conceptual drawings illustrating improved layouts of bus stations and lay-byes to enable overtaking of buses at stations,

(2) Review and amend (if necessary) the new Mile 12 Terminal design drawings (from the designs of the Mile 12- Ikorodu BRT Extension Project) to ascertain its functionality with the planned upgrade.

(3) Review and redesign using Traffic management techniques, the egress and entry points on Ikorodu Road, between the service lanes, the BRT dedicated lanes and main carriageway lanes from Odo-Iya Alaro bridge to Ketu Bus Stop Area (both directions) with a view to improve traffic flow during the peak periods and reduce bottlenecks at existing points.

(4) Prepare conceptual drawings of the buses in stop positioning relative to kerb face at the bus stations, in order to allow easy boarding and reduced boarding time. This should take into consideration the present arid planned bus types along the corridor “(Mile 12- Ikorodu & Mile 12- CMS)”.
