At Obalende, look for a 'Danfo' going to Oshodi. Confirm with the conductor that it's going to 'Oshodi Under Bridge' or 'Oshodi Terminal' before boarding. This bus will cross the Third Mainland Bridge.
From Oshodi (either Under Bridge or Terminal), take another 'Danfo' heading towards Mile 2 or going 'along' Apapa-Oshodi Expressway. Tell the conductor you are dropping at 'Cele Express'.
At Cele Express, you'll find 'Keke Napep' or 'Danfo' buses specifically going 'along' Ago Palace Way. Confirm your specific drop-off point on Ago Palace Way (e.g., Apple Junction, Okota Roundabout, etc.).

Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, the best times are mid-morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) or early afternoon (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM). Weekends, particularly Sundays, offer significantly lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. During the day, public transport is generally safe. However, 'one-chance' vehicles (unmarked cars or buses posing as public transport) are a risk, especially late evenings or at night. Always board buses from designated parks or busy stops. Pickpocketing can occur in crowded buses and bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for parts of this journey, specifically from CMS/TBS to Oshodi. There is no direct BRT route to Ago Palace Way. Lagos's new rail lines are not yet fully integrated for this specific intra-city route.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
