At Falomo or CMS, alight. Look for another 'Danfo' that is going directly to Oyingbo or Iddo. Confirm with the conductor ('man-o-war') before boarding.

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 - 3:00 PM) is usually the best window for faster travel. Avoid 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. While main routes are generally safe during the day, crowded areas like CMS and Oyingbo require vigilance against pickpockets. Evening travel around Oyingbo can be chaotic, so be aware of your surroundings and avoid isolated areas.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for parts of this route, specifically from CMS to Oyingbo. There is no local train service applicable for this specific intra-city journey.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
