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 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.
