Alight at Obalende Bus Stop. Look for 'Danfo' buses heading towards 'Oshodi'. These buses will typically take the Third Mainland Bridge.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid peak hour traffic. Mid-day (11:00 AM - 2:00 PM) offers the best chance for a quicker journey. Evening travel (after 7:00 PM) can also be faster but comes with increased safety considerations.
Safety Rating
Medium. While using public transport is generally safe, passengers should be aware of potential pickpockets in crowded bus stops (like Oshodi or Iyana-Ipaja) and always choose well-lit, busy public transport options. Avoid isolated or suspicious vehicles, especially at night, to prevent 'one-chance' incidents.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for significant portions of this route, offering a more structured and often faster alternative to Danfo buses. There is no rail service currently available for this specific local route.
