Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel to avoid heavy traffic are mid-morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) and early afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM). Avoid peak hours between 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM when traffic is heaviest and travel times can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. During the day, the route is generally safe, but pickpocketing is common in crowded areas like bus stops (CMS, Obalende) and inside crowded buses. For evening travel, it is advisable to use well-lit routes and avoid isolated areas. 'One-chance' incidents are rare with registered public transport but can occur with unmarked private vehicles posing as taxis; stick to known public transport.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT buses are available for parts of the route, connecting major points like Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) and CMS. The Lagos Blue Line Rail Mass Transit has a station at CMS, which is directly at your destination area. While not a direct 'from VI' option, it serves as a key transport hub at the destination, offering a modern alternative once you are near the rail line.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
