About the Isashi Landing – Itekun (Ogun) crossing
06:00 and 08:00 run Monday to Saturday; 13:00 and 15:00 run Monday to Friday. A Saturday therefore has half the service of a weekday, and both halves are in the morning.
Five hours in the middle
Nothing between eight in the morning and one in the afternoon. The pattern is two bursts — early and mid-afternoon — with a working day in between.
Three minutes, 0.3 nautical miles
A few hundred metres of creek water, crossing from Lagos State into Ogun. On this scale the boat is a bridge that happens to float, and the timetable is the only thing that limits it.
Listed to 21 April 2027
