Traveling from Ikoyi on Lagos Island to Cement on the mainland is a common intra-city route. It involves crossing the busy 3rd Mainland Bridge and navigating the Ikorodu Road corridor. This journey is best undertaken using a combination of public transport options like 'Danfo' (yellow commercial buses) and 'BRT' (Bus Rapid Transit), usually requiring one or two transfers. Expect varying travel times due to Lagos's notorious traffic.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, aim to travel early morning (before 6:30 AM), late morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM), or late afternoon (3:00 PM - 4:00 PM). Avoid peak rush hours (6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:30 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as journey times can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during daylight hours, travelers should exercise caution. Be aware of pickpockets in crowded bus stops and inside buses. 'One-chance' incidents (unmarked vehicles posing as public transport to rob passengers) are a concern, particularly at night or in less busy areas. Always opt for clearly marked and recognized public transport vehicles.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a very good option for the mainland segment of this route, specifically from Obalende or CMS to Ojota along Ikorodu Road, as they use dedicated lanes. There is no intra-city train service available for this specific journey within Lagos.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
