This guide shows you the easiest ways to move from Pako (around Mile 2/Ojo axis) to Iyana School along the Lasu-Iba road. Because transport prices keep changing in Lagos due to high fuel costs, this guide gives you the latest price ranges and smartest routes so you do not get stranded.
Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
To beat the heavy morning rush, try to leave Pako before 6:30 AM. For evening travel, the road becomes very blocked from 4:30 PM until 8:30 PM. Moving between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM is usually the fastest because the roads are much clearer.

Walk to the main roadside at Pako Bus Stop and board a direct commercial bus (Danfo) heading towards Iyana Iba.
Stay on the bus as it drives past Alakija and Old Toll Gate, then drop at Iyana Iba Bus Stop (popularly called Under-bridge).
Cross safely to the other side of the road facing the Lasu-Iba axis and board another short-distance Danfo or Keke going straight to Iyana School.
Tell the conductor or driver you will drop at Iyana School Bus Stop, which is just after the LASU gate area.
Always enter the bus with 'change' (small naira notes) to avoid fights with conductors who do not have balance.
Hold your bags tightly in front of you when crossing the busy Iyana Iba under-bridge area.
If you are unsure of where to drop, sit close to the driver and remind him nicely to call out Iyana School for you.
Check the tires and condition of the Danfo before entering to avoid buses that break down halfway.

Safety Rating
Medium - The route is generally busy and safe during the day. However, you must be very careful at night, especially around Mile 2, Alakija, and Iyana Iba under-bridge. Watch out for pickpockets who pretend to be commuters, and avoid dragging your phone near open bus windows.
BRT / Rail / Water
The Lagos Blue Line Rail is available nearby if you are coming from Marina to Mile 2, but it does not pass directly through the Lasu-Iba road to Iyana School. There are no dedicated BRT buses running this specific inner route, so you will mostly rely on standard commercial buses (Danfo) and Keke.

Areas Affected
Lagos-Badagry Expressway
Transport fares have gone up across Lagos because of the high price of fuel. Drivers now spend much more money to fill their tanks, and they pass this cost down to commuters to avoid losing money.
The safest time is during daylight hours, specifically between 7:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Avoid moving very early in the dark or late at night because streetlights are few and criminals use the darkness to steal.
Direct buses are very rare. Most times, you must drop at Iyana Iba under-bridge first, then take a second bus or Keke to Iyana School. Always ask the conductor where the bus stops before you enter.
If a heavy rain starts, expect prices to go up immediately for the next leg of your trip. Try to stay at a major shelter like the LASU gate or a gas station until the initial heavy road flash-floods clear out.
