Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst of the peak hour traffic. Mid-afternoons (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) are also usually smoother. Avoid traveling between 6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. During the day, the route is generally safe. However, 'one-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed by criminals posing as commercial vehicle operators) can occur on any route in Lagos, though less common on very short, busy intra-city trips. Exercise caution, especially when traveling late in the evening or at night. Always board vehicles at recognized bus stops.
