Compiling Route Details...
Moving from Amuwo Odofin to Abijo takes you across the full length of Lagos, from the Mainland to the deep Lekki-Epe Axis on the Island. This journey requires crossing major water channels and driving through heavily congested expressways. Because of the long distance, commuters must use multiple connection buses (Danfos), major bus terminals like Costain, CMS, or Ajah, or opt for direct but expensive ride-hailing services. Due to current high fuel prices, fares fluctuate heavily depending on the time of day and weather conditions.

From CMS Terminal, cross over and board a large coaster bus or a Danfo going straight to Ajah.

Best Time to Travel
To beat the worst gridlock, morning commuters should leave Amuwo Odofin between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM. If you miss this window, wait until the off-peak period between 11:00 AM and 2:30 PM. For evening travel, avoid moving between 4:30 PM and 8:00 PM when workers are rushing back to the Island and the Ajah/Sangotedo bottleneck is at its peak.
Safety Rating
Medium - Commuters must stay very alert. Mile 2 and Costain are notorious for pickpockets and area boys, especially in the early mornings before 6:30 AM and late evenings after 7:30 PM. Keep your phones and wallets inside your bags. Inside the Danfos, watch out for 'one-chance' vehicles by avoiding buses that look suspicious or have passengers acting strangely. On the Lekki-Epe corridor, traffic robberies can happen during heavy standstills at night, so keep your car windows wound up.
BRT / Rail / Water
The Lagos Blue Line Rail is available from Mile 2 (very close to Amuwo Odofin) to Marina/CMS, which helps you bypass all Mainland traffic. From CMS to Ajah and Abijo, there are no active rail lines, but standard BRT buses and regulated commercial buses operate from CMS terminal down to Ajah.
