Traffic is heaviest during morning (7-10 AM) and evening (4-8 PM) rush hours; plan your journey accordingly.

Always confirm your destination with the bus conductor before boarding to avoid going off route.

Keep small denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) for bus fares as conductors often don't have change for larger notes.

Be prepared for multiple transfers and potential waiting times at bus stops, especially during non-peak hours when buses fill up slower.
