ABSTRACT
Lagos State being a commercial centre of Nigeria and West Africa is faced with the challenge of rapid development and its associated traffic congestion. Traffic congestion brings about economic loss and health problem due to delayed travel times, air pollution and accidents. Thus, this study will evaluate the impact of traffic congestion on Lagos road with a view of proffering recommendation that will enhance best traffic management in order to aid perfect movement system.
However, the study examines traffic management problem resulting from traffic congestion in study area, evaluates the opinion of stakeholders (commuters, operators, and private owners) in transport sector such as traffic situation and management problem in study area and examines time of the day and day of the week in which congestion is very heavy
The regression result shows that traffic congestion as an independent variable is significant at 5% significant level with t-value = 41.75, F(1,138) = 1742.13 and the R2=.927 which shows that there is a strong relationship between the traffic congestion and workers health measure. Thus, R = .963 which implies that there is 96% significant level between workers health and traffic congestion.
Conclusively, findings from the research revealed that the law enforcement agents are available at the study area, but there is still congestion. This implies that the law enforcement agents are not effective as revealed by the research according to the respondent’s response. However, the recommendation discussed should be strictly adhere to in order to aid perfect traffic movement system in the study area.
