Best Time to Travel
To beat the heavy morning rush hour traffic, depart Iyana School between 5:30 AM and 6:30 AM. For afternoon or off-peak travel, 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM is usually smoother. For evening return trips, expect heavy gridlock if you leave Allen Avenue between 4:30 PM and 8:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium - Be very careful with your phones and wallets at major bus stops like Mile 2, Oshodi, and Ikeja Under-Bridge, especially early in the morning and late at night. Beware of pickpockets and do not display your valuables in public. Only board buses inside the designated parks or crowded garages rather than isolated roadsides to avoid entering 'one-chance' criminal vehicles.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, there is partial availability. You can use the Lagos Blue Line Rail from Mile 2 to Marina if you are going south, but for this specific northern route to Ikeja, you can use the standard BRT buses from Oshodi Terminal to Ikeja. The new Lagos Red Line Rail also connects Oshodi to Ikeja, which is a faster alternative if your timing aligns with the train schedule.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
