Always aim to depart early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) to significantly reduce travel time, especially on the Mile 2 - Oshodi - Ikeja corridor.

Keep small denominations of Naira (₦50, ₦100, ₦200, ₦500 notes) as conductors often do not have change for larger notes.

Be vigilant and secure your belongings, particularly in crowded bus stops and during boarding/alighting.

Before boarding, confirm the destination and the fare with the conductor to avoid misunderstandings.

Consider ride-hailing services (e.g., Bolt, Uber) for the final leg from Ikeja Along to Alausa if you prefer more comfort or are in a hurry.
