Best Time to Travel
The best time to start your journey is early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) to beat the heavy traffic on the Third Mainland Bridge and the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Avoid traveling late at night (after 7:00 PM) due to reduced public transport availability and increased security risks in isolated areas.
Safety Rating
Medium. While the route itself is generally safe during the day, long-distance public transport within Lagos requires vigilance. 'One-chance' syndicates can operate in shared taxis, especially at night. It's advisable to travel during daylight hours and avoid displaying valuables. Ensure your phone is charged for emergencies.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for parts of this route, specifically from CMS/TBS to Ajah. However, there is no direct BRT service to Imokun. There are no rail options for this specific route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
