In June 2020, two daily connections were introduced to Alagomeji Terminals in Yaba and Ijoko Terminals in Ogun State. Trucks can then be deployed to both locations to collect containers and return empties, which the NRC will convey back to the port. To reduce truck traffic, the Terminal also operates an inland barge service that can handle up to 20 TEU per barge. In addition to meeting international security requirements outlined by the International Ship and Port Security (ISPS) code, and APM Terminals global safety requirements, the Terminal operates a truck safety program program that ensures that designated, physically protected areas are provided for drivers conducting operational activities outside of their truck cabs, as well as safety instructions specific to each facilitys layout and traffic flow.
