Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of peak hour traffic. Afternoons (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) can also be manageable. Avoid traveling during evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) if possible, as travel time can double.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, crowded bus stops are known for pickpockets. 'One-chance' incidents can occur, especially in less crowded buses or late at night. Always board buses from designated, busy bus stops. Be aware that LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority) and VIO (Vehicle Inspection Office) operate checkpoints, especially on major routes like the Lagos-Badagry Expressway; ensure your chosen public transport vehicle appears roadworthy to avoid delays.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, BRT services are available from Obalende/CMS to Mile 2. The Lagos Blue Line Rail also offers a fast alternative from Marina to Mile 2, which is highly recommended to bypass traffic on the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway.
Avoid boarding roadside unofficial buses at Oshodi or Ojota. Always use the ticketing booths inside the official terminals to guarantee insurance and regulated boarding rates.
