Views: Visits 6 The ‘Greater Lagos’ train recently berthed in Lagos Island, heralding the commencement of the Lagos Island Area North Action Plan aimed at regenerating that axis of the state. The first phase of the plan began with the reconstruction of Adeniji Adele, Oke-Popo/Tapa roads as well as the new Mercy Children’s Hospital. The Lagos Island Area North Action Plan is a product of visionary leadership that is committed to building an enduring legacy for coming generations. The execution of the project started with the inauguration of an Inter-Ministerial Committee, comprising the Ministries of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Works and Infrastructure, Environment and Water Resources and Transportation.
â¢New Hospital to be in 7-Storey, Operates on IPP
â¢Governor Kicks off Massive Rehabilitation of Adeniji Adele Road, Two Other Streets
Massey Street Children Hospital – the century old secondary health facility on the Lagos Island and a birthplace of prominent Lagosians – is now to be upgraded and relocated to a convenient site.
The single-storey 85-bed paediatrics facility, established in 1914, is currently overstretched to meet the care demands of children because of the increasing number of patients it receives daily; the inadequacy prompted the State Governmentâs move to upgrade the hospital in order to meet the needs of the residents.
Flagging off both roads and hospital project, Sanwo-Olu enumerated benefits of good road network for ease of doing business and accessibility to quality healthcare to reduce infants and maternal mortality. Sanwo-Olu said that the construction of the New Massey Children’s Hospital and the reconstruction of the Adeniji Adele, Oke Popo and Tapa Street were an integral part of the Greater Lagos Vision. He said that the strategic roads would add value to the New Massey Children’s Hospital being reconstructed and upgraded into a seven storey, 150-bed multipurpose Pediatrics and General Hospital. He listed various ministries working together on the regeneration of the roads as part of the Lagos Island Area North Action Plan to address flooding, gridlock and other challenges on the axis.
