Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or mid-day (between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM) are the best times to travel to avoid the worst of Lagos's peak hour traffic. Weekends generally have lighter traffic, especially on Saturdays.
Safety Rating
Medium. The Lagos-Badagry Expressway, especially as you get closer to Badagry and beyond, can have security concerns, particularly at night. 'One-chance' incidents, where criminals pose as public transport operators, are a known risk in Lagos. Always use established bus parks and avoid boarding vehicles that are not clearly marked or already have suspicious-looking 'passengers'. It is best to avoid traveling late at night if possible.
