Safety Rating
Medium to High Risk. This long-distance route traverses several states where highway security can be a concern, especially in less populated areas or during late hours. Incidents of 'one-chance' (robbery in shared vehicles) and kidnapping have been reported on some segments of major inter-state roads. Night travel is strongly discouraged.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT is available for the initial leg from Dopemu to major interstate bus parks in Lagos. There is no direct interstate rail service covering this entire route; the Lagos-Ibadan rail line is too short for this extensive journey.
