From Idumagbo Avenue, take a 'short-trip' yellow Danfo bus or a Keke Napep to CMS Bus Stop.
At CMS Bus Stop, look for the park where buses going to Ikorodu are available. Board a Danfo heading directly to 'Ikorodu Garage' or 'Sabo Ikorodu'. If a direct bus is not immediately available, you might take one to 'Ojota' or 'Ketu' and then transfer.
If your bus drops you at Ikorodu Garage (Ikorodu Roundabout), take another local Danfo or Keke Napep to Sabo Bus Stop.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, the best times to travel are early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM). Mid-day (between 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM) also typically offers clearer roads. It is strongly advised to avoid traveling between 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM on weekdays, as traffic can be severe.
Safety Rating
Medium. The route is generally safe during daylight hours. However, travelers should be aware of 'one-chance' syndicates, especially if traveling late at night or in sparsely filled vehicles. Always use buses from designated parks or BRT terminals. Avoid boarding unmarked vehicles or those with very few passengers, particularly for long distances or after dark. Petty theft can also occur in crowded bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system is a highly recommended option for a large part of this route. BRT buses operate from CMS/TBS directly to Ikorodu, utilizing dedicated lanes for faster travel. There is currently no active passenger rail service on this specific corridor.
Always ask for a physical or SMS-linked waybill receipt when sending a package via Surulere couriers. This serves as your legal proof of dispatch.
