Moving from Lakowe (on the Lekki-Epe axis) to Alausa (the Lagos State Secretariat area in Ikeja) is a very long journey that cuts across the Island and the Mainland. Because of heavy traffic on the Lekki-Epe Expressway and the Third Mainland Bridge, you need to plan your movement carefully, leave very early, and prepare for high transport fares caused by current fuel price hikes.

Best Time to Travel
To beat the morning rush, leave Lakowe between 5:00 AM and 5:30 AM. If you miss this window, wait until 10:00 AM when the Island-to-Mainland traffic reduces. For evening return trips, leave Alausa before 4:00 PM or after 8:30 PM to avoid getting stuck for hours.
Safety Rating
Medium - The route is generally safe during the day, but you must be careful at major interchange bus stops like Ajah, Oshodi, and Ojota. Keep your phone and wallet safe from pickpockets (locally called 'One-Chance' or 'Cut-arrangers'). Avoid moving very late at night, especially around under-bridges and dark walkways.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT or train line from Lakowe to Alausa. However, you can use the standard BRT buses when you get to major mainland hubs like Oshodi or Ojota to finish your journey to Ikeja/Alausa. The Lagos Blue Line Rail is on a different route (Mile 2 to Marina) and cannot help with this specific journey.
Shuttle fares from Berger to Mowe fluctuate depending on petrol availability at the Berger junction. Expect standard fares during off-peak morning hours.
