❓Route FAQ

What is the fastest way to get from Abule Egba to Mile 2?

The fastest way is usually via a ride-hailing service (Bolt/Uber) due to its direct nature. However, during severe traffic, well-managed commercial buses that leverage alternative routes or BRT corridors (if available on a segment) might offer comparable travel times, though often involving transfers.

Is it safe to travel from Abule Egba to Mile 2 at night?

Generally, it is advisable to exercise increased caution when traveling at night. For public transport, stick to busy, well-lit bus stops. If using ride-hailing, always confirm driver details and share your trip with a trusted contact.

Are there direct buses from Abule Egba to Mile 2?

Direct commercial bus routes from Abule Egba to Mile 2 are extremely rare, if they exist at all. The standard and most efficient public transport method involves multiple legs, typically changing buses at major hubs like Iyana-Ipaja and Oshodi.

How much luggage can I carry on a Danfo bus?

Danfo buses have very limited space for luggage. You can typically carry a backpack or a medium-sized handbag without issues. For larger luggage, you might need to pay an additional fare or consider booking a ride-hailing service that offers more boot space.

Can I use a BRT bus for part of this journey?

While BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a prominent transport option in Lagos, there isn't a direct BRT route covering the entire Abule Egba to Mile 2 journey. You can, however, use Danfo to get to Oshodi, and then potentially find a BRT connection from Oshodi towards Mile 2 on the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway corridor.
