Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or mid-day (between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious peak hour traffic. Avoid rush hour (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. While most public transport is safe, be aware of 'one-chance' vehicles, especially when traveling late at night from major hubs like Oshodi or Obalende. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses and bus stops. Always travel with trusted public transport and avoid isolated areas.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a viable option for parts of this journey, specifically from Iyana-Ipaja to Oshodi, and from Oshodi/CMS towards Ajah. There is no direct rail service connecting Abesan Estate to Abijo at this time.
