Showing the primary/fastest route plan
Step 1: Get to the VGC Gate/Abraham Adesanya Roundabout.
From within VGC, take a local Keke Napep (tricycle) or a shared Danfo (yellow mini-bus) to the main VGC Gate. From there, you can easily find another Keke or Danfo heading towards Abraham Adesanya Roundabout where the BRT terminal is located.
Step 2: Board a BRT bus to CMS/TBS.
At the Abraham Adesanya BRT Terminal, purchase a BRT card (if you don't have one) or top up an existing one. Board a BRT bus clearly marked for CMS or TBS. These buses offer a dedicated lane for most of the journey, making them generally faster and more comfortable. The journey will take you through the Lekki-Epe Expressway, Ozumba Mbadiwe, and across to Lagos Island.
Step 3: Connect from CMS/TBS to Freedom Park.
Upon alighting at CMS or TBS, Freedom Park is a short 10-15 minute walk. It is located on Broad Street, directly opposite the Old Prison where it gets its name. If you prefer not to walk, you can take a short Keke Napep or a local Danfo from CMS/TBS directly to Freedom Park.

Best Time to Travel
To minimize travel time due to Lagos traffic, aim to depart VGC very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late in the evening (after 7:00 PM) on weekdays. Mid-day on weekends generally offers lighter traffic conditions.
Safety Rating
Medium. While public transport in Lagos is generally safe during the day, it's wise to remain aware of your surroundings, secure your belongings, and avoid late-night travel on public buses. 'One-chance' vehicles are rare on BRT but can be a concern with unmarked taxis or less reputable Danfos, so stick to designated bus stops and reputable services.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a major public transport option for a significant portion of this route, offering a more structured and often faster service than regular Danfos. There is no train service available for this specific route.
