Can I use the Lagos BRT system for this route?
While the BRT system is efficient, it doesn't directly serve Ajegunle or Ilupeju end-to-end. You can use Danfo from Ajegunle to connect to a BRT route (e.g., from Mile 2 to Fadeyi/Maryland) and then switch to a Keke or another Danfo for Ilupeju. This might add complexity but can be faster on dedicated BRT lanes.
