Traveling from Banana Island to Ikorodu involves navigating through central Lagos traffic before connecting to the major Ikorodu Road corridor. The journey is long and can be challenging due to traffic, but several public transport options exist, including buses (Danfo), BRT, and even water transport, offering different balances of cost and time.

2h 30m
Total Cost

Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Banana Island, take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or a local mini-bus ('Danfo') to Falomo Bus Stop.
At Falomo, look for a 'Danfo' going to CMS/TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square).
From CMS/TBS, head to the BRT terminal. Take a BRT bus directly to Ikorodu (e.g., Ikorodu Garage, Agric, Owode Onirin). BRT is usually faster and more comfortable.
Alternatively, from CMS/TBS, you can find a 'Danfo' going to Ikorodu, but it will be slower than BRT.

Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning/early afternoon (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's peak hour traffic. Avoid traveling during evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) and very late at night.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, be cautious of 'one-chance' operators, especially on long bus routes like Ikorodu Road, particularly at night. Always use established bus parks or BRT terminals. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses and terminals.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is widely available and highly recommended for the Ikorodu Road section of your journey. There is no rail option directly connecting Banana Island to Ikorodu.
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.
