Compiling Route Details...
Moving from Akowonjo to Iyana Oworo takes you from the heart of Alimosho local government area to the major mainland transport hub linking the mainland to Lagos Island. While the physical distance is under 20 kilometers, heavy traffic at key choke points like Dopemu, Oshodi, and Anthony can drastically increase your travel time. Commuters can choose between standard commercial yellow buses (Danfo), connecting via Keke Marwa for shorter stretches, or using ride-hailing services for a direct, air-conditioned ride.

Best Time to Travel
To beat the heavy morning traffic, leave Akowonjo before 6:00 AM. For afternoon or off-peak travel, 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM is usually free. In the evening, try to avoid moving between 4:30 PM and 8:30 PM when workers are returning from the Island.
Safety Rating
Medium - The route is generally safe during daytime, but pickpocketing is very common at crowded transit points like Oshodi and Iyana Oworo. Always hold your bags tightly, do not use your phone near bus windows, and avoid late-night movements.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT lane or train service connecting Akowonjo to Iyana Oworo. However, when you get to Oshodi, you can connect to the standard BRT buses going towards Oshodi-Abule Egba or use the corridor buses heading towards the Island through Iyana Oworo.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
