Its proximity to key areas such as Agege, Ikeja, and Ogba makes it an attractive choice for families and professionals seeking comfort within reach of the city’s major hubs.

The Lagos-Ibadan railway line, which passes through Iju Station, has further enhanced the area’s accessibility and is expected to spur greater development and movement in the years ahead.
Infrastructure and Development
Iju Ishaga has witnessed steady improvements in infrastructure, with key roads undergoing reconstruction to ease traffic congestion. While major roads have improved significantly, some inner streets still experience flooding challenges during the rainy season. Nevertheless, the government’s continued investment in road expansion and drainage systems reflects ongoing progress.
The area is also benefiting from Lagos State’s transport modernization, which includes better bus networks and railway expansion — all contributing to Iju’s growing urban character.
