Overcoming Transportation Bottlenecks and the Resulting Effect on Nigeria's Gross Domestic Product
Abstract:The research examined how Nigeria's economic growth—particularly in Lagos—was impacted by transport infrastructure projects, or TIPs. It was discovered that the Apapa Gridlock in particular, has a major effect on Lagos's economy. The majority of respondents agreed that traffic in Lagos was caused in part by bottlenecks, and 76% said that earlier attempts to lessen traffic had failed. According to the research, there is a positive correlation between the Apapa bottleneck and the Nigerian economy, which shows that improvements are necessary to break the impasse. The T-test result was less than 0.05, therefore the null hypothesis was rejected. A thorough, multi-tiered public-private partnership strategy is advised by the study.
