The condition of intra-urban transport system in Nigerian cities is becoming worrisome by the day. Although the situation affects male and female, previous empirical and theoretical discussions most of the time assumed the universality of gender”s experience. Transportation Planning and Engineering have been gender neutral. It is against this background that the study evaluates condition of intra-urban transport and gender travel behaviourin Nigeria using Ilorin as case study. The study uses primary data, which were obtained through a random and systematic sampling of 500 households in Ilorin, Nigeria. Variables used for this study include indicators of urban transport infrastructure conditions and intra-urban travel patterns. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics in form of cross tabulation and chi-square statistics. The results showed inadequate and poorly maintained transport infrastructural facilities; accidents; waiting for long periods at the bus stops; traffic congestion and the related parking problems.
