Compiling Route Details...
Traveling from the bustling Marina business district (CMS) on Lagos Island to the state capital, Ikeja, is a primary mainland-bound route. Spanning approximately 22 kilometers, this journey typically involves crossing the Third Mainland Bridge or traversing the Ikorodu Road corridor. Commuters have a range of options from regulated high-capacity buses to more flexible commercial Danfos and the modern Red Line rail system. Choosing the right mode and timing is essential to navigate the unpredictable evening rush hour traffic that defines this corridor.

Showing the primary/fastest route plan
Locate the official CMS Bus Terminal situated at the Marina waterfront, easily accessible via the pedestrian bridge. Proceed to the designated bay for 'Ikeja' or 'Ogba' and join the structured queue for high-capacity regulated buses.
Once boarded, the bus will navigate through the Outer Marina road and ascend the Third Mainland Bridge or follow the Ikorodu Road dedicated BRT lane. This stretch offers a scenic view of the Lagoon before the bus enters the mainland transit corridor.
Alight at either the Ikeja Along bus stop (ideal for Computer Village) or the final Ikeja Bus Terminal near the railway crossing. Ensure you have your Cowry Card ready to tap off if required by the current fare system.
