Traffic congestion relief: The Lekki-Epe Expressway is notorious for massive congestion. The Green Line offers an alternative mass transit corridor, which should reduce road traffic, improve commuting times.
Improved connectivity: Links key residential, commercial, and industrial zones: Marina, Victoria Island, Lekki, Ajah, Sangotedo, LFTZ. Also, improved access to ports, trade zones, deep seaport, manufacturing zones.

Implications for Real Estate Investment: Opportunities & Drivers
Opportunity How It Might Play Out
Property value appreciation Areas close to stations / along the rail line are likely to see increases in land and building values. Reduced commuting times, better access, etc., will make such locations more attractive for residential, commercial, mixed-use developments.
New development nodes & densification
Stations will become magnets for new commercial centres, retail, offices, and high-density housing. Areas that are currently semi-suburban could densify.
Change in land use & zoning around stations Some parcels may convert from farmland or undeveloped land to residential, commercial, transit-oriented development (TOD). Potential for zoning laws to be adapted.

Transit-oriented development (TOD) Mixed uses—residential, retail, entertainment—near stations can thrive. Developers might build with the rail in mind (walking distance to station, reduced parking needs, etc.).
Rental market growth Demand for rentals near stations will increase, especially among commuters wanting to reduce travel time to Marina, Victoria Island, or other employment hubs.
Commercial / retail traction Retail strip malls, shopping centres, kiosks, and service businesses (food, logistics, etc.) are likely to locate near stations. Also, parking / feeder transport may offer opportunities.
Speculative land acquisition Investors buying land ahead of full development may benefit greatly, especially in areas currently less developed (e.g., parts of Sangotedo, Eleko, Ibeju, etc.).
