FG to explore intermodal transport
The transport
minister, Yusuf Suleiman, on Wednesday reiterated Federal Government’s
commitment to the execution of the concept of intermodal transportation.
He told the News
Agency of Nigeria in Singapore that the concept involved a process in
which the various modes of transportation such as rail, road, water,
and air would be interlinked.
“We must have an integrated transport infrastructure that complements one another,” he said.
Mr. Suleiman said
that when a ship berths at the Lagos Port, the movement of the cargoes
should be complemented by both rail and road services. He said that the
final draft of the National Transport Policy, which was all
encompassing, had just been produced.
