Start from your location in Ijede. Take a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a local Danfo bus to the Ikorodu Roundabout / Ipakodo BRT Terminal.
At the Ipakodo BRT Terminal, purchase a BRT card (if you don't have one) or pay for a ticket. Board a BRT bus heading towards CMS / TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square). This is the longest leg of your journey.
From CMS or TBS, walk to the nearest public bus stop or find a Danfo bus heading towards Lekki Phase 1 / Maroko / Sandfill. These buses usually ply Ozumba Mbadiwe Road.
Alight at a bus stop close to Oniru, such as the one near Ebeano Supermarket or Four Points by Sheraton. From there, take a Keke Napep or a local 'Okada' (motorcycle, if available and allowed in that specific area) directly to Palace Road Oniru. You might also find local 'charter' taxis.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Weekends, especially Sundays, generally have lighter traffic. Avoid travelling between 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM on weekdays if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel, especially in less crowded areas or using less reputable transport, carries higher risks. Always be aware of your surroundings and keep valuables secure. 'One-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed by criminals posing as public transport operators) are a concern, particularly with unmarked vehicles or late-night travel. Stick to known bus stops and recognized public transport options.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a major part of this route, especially from Ikorodu to Lagos Island. There is no train service directly applicable for this intra-city route. Water transport (ferry) is also a viable alternative for part of the journey.
