Moving from Ojo to Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) takes you from the bustling mainland corridor of Lagos straight into the heart of the island. Because of fuel price hikes and daily traffic, your total journey can cost anywhere from ₦1,500 to ₦4,500 depending on the option you choose. The journey requires patience as you will pass through heavy traffic areas, but using the blue rail line or taking specific express buses can save you hours of stress.

Best Time to Travel
To beat the morning rush, leave Ojo between 5:00 AM and 5:30 AM. If you miss that, wait until the off-peak period from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM. For evening return trips from TBS, leave before 4:00 PM or wait until after 8:00 PM to avoid the worst gridlock.
Safety Rating
Medium - Be very alert at Mile 2, Volks, and Orile bus stops, especially in the early mornings and late nights. Keep your phone and wallet inside your bag. Hold your bag tightly to your front when walking through crowded bus stops to avoid pickpockets. If you are trapped in traffic at night, wind up your car windows and lock the doors.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (Blue Line) operates from Mile 2 to Marina, which is very close to TBS. Standard BRT buses also run along the Lagos-Badagry Expressway corridor, though operations can be irregular due to ongoing road expansions.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
