Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From your specific location in Ikorodu (e.g., Igbogbo, Ebute), take a 'Keke' (tricycle) or a local 'Danfo' (yellow bus) to the Ikorodu BRT Terminal. This initial leg might use roads like Alh. Alagago Street, Ireshe road, Igbogbo-Ebute Road, or Obafemi Awolowo Way.
At the Ikorodu BRT Terminal, purchase a ticket or use your BRT card and board a direct BRT bus heading to CMS (Lagos Island). This is the most consistent road option.
Upon arrival at CMS Bus Stop, you can walk or take a short 'Keke' or 'Danfo' to your final destination on Lagos Island, depending on its exact location.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Mid-day (11:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can also be manageable. Avoid 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel, particularly in 'Danfo' buses, carries a 'one-chance' risk (unscrupulous drivers/conductors). Always use well-lit, busy bus stops and avoid empty vehicles at night. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded areas.
