Abstract
Abstract Rail transport developments seem to offer tremendous benefits to land use and spatial development. As the development of rail lines induces land use growth and development. However, the veracity of this claim remains unclear in the context of Nigeria rail resuscitation efforts. This research intends to examine the correlation between rail development and land use in Nigeria. The association between state population characteristics, rail line development, population density, and square kilometres is examined. The methodology comprises both qualitative and quantitative designs. The correlation coefficients are used to establish a relationship between the parameters used in the research. The study reveals that spatial development and land uses are greatly influenced by rail transportation infrastructure provision in the state with a rail line. The analysis reveals a positive relationship between rail line development and population density. Therefore, more investment and better management are needed to facilitate nationwide rail transportation links.
