Abstract
The study examines the features of emerging urbanization on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway with a particular focus on Mowe town. The spill-over of the ever increasing population of Lagos Mega city was found to be taking refuge in the town with indiscriminate housing development. Using household and building survey as primary sources of data to complement the existing secondary data the study uncovered a plethora of negative urbanization trends such as poor housing, uncoordinated and unplanned landuses as well as inadequate provision of urban facilities and services with disastrous planning implications. Timely adequate planning interventions were suggested to remedy the situation.
