At 'CMS' or 'TBS' (Tafawa Balewa Square), locate the 'BRT' terminal. Board a BRT bus going towards 'Mile 12' or 'Ikorodu Road'. Alight at 'Fadeyi' or 'Ojuelegba' bus stop.
From 'Fadeyi' or 'Ojuelegba', cross to the other side of the road (if necessary) and look for 'Danfo' buses heading towards 'Pen Cinema', 'Agege Underbridge', or 'Ikeja Along'. Alight at 'Pen Cinema'.

Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid the worst traffic. Mid-afternoon (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) can also be manageable. Avoid peak hours between 6:00 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel (especially after 7 PM) requires extra caution. 'One-chance' incidents can occur, particularly around less busy bus stops or late-night routes. Always use buses with other passengers and avoid empty vehicles. Be aware of your belongings, especially in crowded areas like Ikeja Underbridge or Pen Cinema.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for a significant portion of this route, from Ikoyi (via CMS/TBS) to areas like Fadeyi/Ojuelegba. There is no direct train service to Obawole.
