Tourism has remained a vital component of the economies of many major destination nations around the world due to its attributed benefits and opportunities, including economic diversification, improved quality of life, revenue generation, job creation, and sustainability of the ecosystem. Tourism can only achieve all these benefits with adequate provisioning and viable operations, maintenance, and management of transport systems. Unfortunately, the provision and operations of the transport system, especially travel modes for tourism activities in Lagos State, are faced with various challenges and externalities that consequently affect tourists' experiences and intentions to recommend and revisit as well as overall tourism satisfaction. Meanwhile, there is a paucity of empirical studies on the quality of travel modes and tourism satisfactions in fast-growing cities, including Lagos, Nigeria. It is against this background that this study modeled the influence of service quality and travel modes on tourism satisfaction in Lagos State, Nigeria. This study is anchored on a cross-sectional survey research design, and a multistage sampling technique was used to administer 2,250 copies of a questionnaire to tourists across the study area. Both descriptive (frequency percentage table, weighted-mean index analysis) and inferential (binary logistic regression, BLR) statistics were used to achieve the data analysis. Major findings revealed that the majority of the respondents were male (above 60%), within the active age group of 18-53 years, and committed between 10% and 20% of their income to tourism annually. Most respondents spent most on transportation and equally rated transportation as the most complicated tourism component of their vacation in Lagos. Furthermore, findings revealed a poor rating of most of the service quality attributes of travel modes for tourism activities and aggregately rated three (reliability, trust, and empathy dimensions) out of the five evaluated dimensions as poor and unsatisfactory in meeting their expectations. However, despite the poor ratings for the service quality of travel modes, most (about 60%) are satisfied with the quality of tourism activities experienced in Lagos State. The result of the BLR model revealed that the service quality of travel modes statistically influences tourism satisfaction in Lagos State (χ2 = 586.893, p = 0.000 < 0.05). This study concludes that there is a need to improve the service quality of travel modes, especially public transport modes, and thus recommends the best strategies to improve the service quality of travel modes for tourism activities in Lagos State, Nigeria.

“…As a behavior-related function of the interaction between environmental and personal characteristics, livability is a suitability for human living; thus, the degree of suitability is determined by community-specific values, ease of mobility and accessibility, and local connectivity and structure in relation to dominant economic, social, and cultural activities and backgrounds. Thus, the personal feelings or the desires of the residents of a particular place and the quality of available transportation facilities are what govern the degree of livability (Salisu et al, 2021;Gbadamosi, Omole, and Akanmu, 2021). Kashef (2016) notes that livability is concerned with creative design processes that utilize elements of urban legibility (path, node, landmark, edge, and district) to enhance the aesthetics and physical characteristics of buildings, streets, and development blocks.…”

The livability of cities has been a matter of global concern in recent times. Importantly, the ease of mobility and accessibility in cities remained paramount factors in enhancing residents’ locational decisions and suitability. It is on this basis that this study examined the nexus between city livability and transportation in the Lagos Metropolis, Nigeria. Anchored on the concept of livability, the study descriptively and inferentially analyzed the results of 1264 questionnaires administered to residents based on key livability themes. The study revealed low satisfaction with the livability key performance indicators. Similarly, the study revealed that most of the assessed transportation infrastructure facilities are in poor condition and thus hinder the ease of commuting and livability in the city. The result of the regression analysis revealed that transportation infrastructure statistically influenced the livability of the Lagos metropolis. The study recommends the need for expedited proactive measures, particularly structural improvement in transportation infrastructure, towards improving the livability of the Lagos Metropolis.
