The Lagos State Government has announced a ban on the movement of goods and heavy luggage on all regulated public transport buses across the state.
The enforcement of the directive is scheduled to take effect on June 1, 2026.
Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority announced the directive in a statement issued on Tuesday by its Head of Corporate Communication, Kolawole Ojelabi.
LAMATA said the move follows growing complaints and operational challenges faced by commuters due to the increasing use of regulated buses for transporting goods and heavy loads, which it said has compromised passenger comfort, safety, and efficient service delivery.
