Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Mid-day (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM) can also be less congested. Avoid traveling during evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) as journey times can more than double.
Safety Rating
Medium. The route involves long stretches on major highways. 'One-chance' bus operators are a risk, especially on direct buses from Mile 2 to Ijanikin late in the evenings. Always use buses from designated parks and avoid empty or suspiciously cheap vehicles. Be aware of pickpockets in crowded bus stops like Mile 2.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT is available for parts of the journey (Lekki to CMS/TBS, and CMS to Mile 2). There is no rail service currently connecting Lekki Phase 1 to Ijanikin. The Blue Line rail project is ongoing, but not yet fully operational for this route.
