Depart from Ayobo. Take a Danfo heading towards Ipaja Roundabout or Alimosho Road. You'll likely depart left on an unnamed road, then turn right on unnamed roads until you reach Isefun Road.
From Ipaja Roundabout/Alimosho Road, board another Danfo directly to Oshodi. This route will take you through Ipaja Road, Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway, and Agege Motor Road.
At Oshodi Underbridge, find a Danfo heading towards Obalende/CMS. This will pass through Agege Motor Road, Herbert Macaulay Street, Herbert Macaulay Way, and then onto the Third Mainland Bridge.
From Obalende Bus Stop, take a smaller Danfo or Keke Napep into Ikoyi. Specify your destination within Ikoyi (e.g., Ikoyi Club, Awolowo Road). This segment will use Obalende Road, F271, Adekunle Lawal Road, Mobolaji Johnson Road, and Ikoyi Club Road.

Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6 AM) or late mornings (after 10 AM) to avoid peak hour traffic. Afternoons (between 1 PM and 3 PM) can also be manageable. Avoid traveling between 6 AM - 9:30 AM and 4 PM - 7:30 PM due to heavy congestion.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daytime travel is generally safe, evening travel (especially after 7 PM) requires caution. 'One-chance' bus incidents are a risk, particularly in less crowded vehicles or at less popular bus stops. Always use well-lit, busy bus stops and shared vehicles.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for parts of this route, specifically from Oshodi or Yaba to CMS/TBS, which significantly reduces travel time on those segments. There is no direct train service for this specific intra-city route.
If traveling between Lagos and mainland extensions via Berger, plan departures before 6:30 AM or after 8:30 PM to bypass heavy bottlenecks at the outward police posts.
