Compiling Route Details...
Moving from Costain to Orile is a short but very busy journey along the starting section of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway. Because it is a major link road for people heading towards Mile 2, Festac, and Badagry, traffic can build up quickly. However, because the distance is short, you have many cheap and fast transport options like yellow buses (Danfo), tricycles (Keke), and the new Lagos Blue Line Rail.

Best Time to Travel
For morning trips, travel before 7:00 AM or wait until after 10:00 AM when the early rush is over. For evening trips, travel before 4:30 PM or wait until after 8:30 PM to avoid the heavy gridlock of people returning from Lagos Island.
Safety Rating
Medium - The route is generally safe during the day because it is always crowded, but you must be very careful at night. Pickpockets operate around Costain Under-bridge and Orile Bus Stop. Do not hold your phone carelessly in traffic, and keep your bags zipped closed.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, the Lagos Blue Line Rail is fully available and is the fastest way to skip traffic. You can board the train from the National Theatre Station (very close to Costain) and drop at the Orile-Iganmu Station.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
