Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is mid-morning (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) or early afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) to avoid the heaviest rush hour traffic. Avoid peak hours (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) if possible, as travel time can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. While Alexander Avenue and Ikoyi are generally safe, be aware of petty theft in crowded bus stops and market areas. 'One-chance' incidents, though rare on this specific route, can occur with unmarked vehicles or if you accept lifts from strangers. Always use recognized public transport.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT or rail service from Lekki Phase 1 to Alexander Avenue. You can use BRT for a portion of the journey (e.g., from Marwa/Ilaje to TBS/CMS), but this will require additional connections and might not be the most direct or fastest public transport option.
