This journey takes you through the busy heart of Lagos, moving from the old Mainland hubs over the bridges down to the high-traffic Lekki corridor. Because of fuel price hikes and regular road gridlock, planning your route and budget is very important.

Best Time to Travel
For morning trips, leave Costain before 6:00 AM to beat the heavy Island-bound traffic. For afternoon or off-peak trips, travel between 11:00 AM and 2:00 PM. Avoid moving between 4:30 PM and 8:30 PM when workers are returning back to the Mainland.
Safety Rating
Medium - Be very alert at Obalende and Costain under-bridge, especially in the early mornings and late nights. Keep your phones and wallets inside your bags. Do not hang around dark bus stops alone. Watch out for pickpockets when rushing to enter buses.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT bus or Train line running from Costain straight to Jakande. However, you can use standard BRT buses from Costain to CMS/Obalende, then switch to regular yellow commercial buses (Danfo) or Coaster buses for the Island leg of the journey.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
