Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Gowon Junction, board a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) heading towards Iyana-Ipaja Underbridge. Confirm the destination with the conductor ('Iyana-Ipaja').
At Iyana-Ipaja Underbridge, alight and look for another 'Danfo' heading towards Abule-Egba. This is a busy interchange; ensure you board from the designated bus park area.
From Abule-Egba, you will need to board a 'Danfo' going directly to Iyana-Iba. This is a longer stretch along the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway and then connecting to the Badagry Expressway. Confirm 'Iyana-Iba' with the conductor.
Upon arrival at Iyana-Iba, alight and take a final 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) towards Volks Bus Stop. Volks is just a few stops away.

Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM on weekdays to avoid the worst of Lagos's peak hour traffic. Weekends, especially Sunday mornings, generally offer faster travel times.
Safety Rating
Medium. While public transport is generally safe, be aware of pickpockets, especially in crowded buses and terminals. 'One-chance' syndicates can operate, particularly in less crowded vehicles or late at night. Always board buses from designated bus stops and avoid isolated areas.
