Hotspots

Best Time to Travel

Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM) to avoid the worst of the morning rush. Mid-afternoon (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) is usually clearer. Avoid evening peak hours (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as traffic can be severe, doubling or tripling travel time.

Safety Rating

Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel requires caution. 'One-chance' syndicates (buses operated by criminals) are a risk, especially in less crowded buses or late at night. Pickpocketing is common in crowded bus stops. Always be alert and choose well-lit, busy bus stops. LASTMA/VIO officials are visible along major routes like Ikorodu Road and Third Mainland Bridge; ensure your chosen vehicle appears roadworthy to avoid delays.

BRT / Rail / Water

BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for parts of this route. You can take a BRT from CMS to Maryland/Anthony. From Lekki, you would typically use a Danfo (yellow bus) or a BRT feeder service to get to CMS first. There is no rail option directly connecting Lekki to Anthony Village for passenger travel.
