Best Time to Travel
To beat the morning rush hour gridlock, the best time to move is between 6:00 AM and 7:00 AM. For a smooth off-peak journey, travel between 11:00 AM and 3:30 PM. Evening peak traffic starts heavily from 4:30 PM and can lock down major intersections until 9:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium - Commuters should be highly alert at major transit hubs. Watch your pockets and bags closely at Anthony Under-bridge and Yaba Bus Stop, especially in the early mornings and late nights when pickpockets and area boys operate. Always wait for buses inside designated parks or well-lit bus stops rather than standing alone on isolated roadsides.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, standard regulated buses and BRT lanes run along the main Ikorodu Road corridor from Anthony to locations like Fadeyi or Ojuelegba, where you can tap your Cowry Card. However, there is no direct BRT or rail line that cuts directly inside Akoka. You must mix the main corridor ride with a Danfo, Keke, or private ride to enter the inner Akoka streets.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
