The Abuja Light Rail Phase One (50% Completed)
The image at the left was taken by Joe Ombuor and shows the track work of the Airport Line (Lot 3 Segment). The image in the centre is a station that we have not been able to identify, but it is possibly the Idu Station (Which is a transfer Station and would explain why three tracks can be seen). The Image to the far right shows a CCECC Test/Maintenance vehicle, with a max design speed of 100 km/hr (Photo credited to: Adam Smith International).
On the 24th of September 2014, the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Lot 1B Segment was signed. It is a 31km segment and will cost a total of $792 Million. Lots 1A and Lot 3 are the segments that are currently under construction and have a total length of 45.2km. Lots 1A and Lot 3 are Phase One of the Abuja Rail Mass Transit project and are expected to be completed by October 2015, according to Managing Director of CCECC, Cao Baogong. The video shown below, shows the recent inspection of the phase one progress.
