From your location in Ikoyi (e.g., Falomo or Awolowo Road), find a Danfo bus heading to Obalende.
At Obalende, look for a direct Danfo bus going to Oshodi (Under Bridge or Terminal). Ensure the bus is clearly marked 'Oshodi'.
From Oshodi, locate the buses heading towards Egbeda or Iyana Ipaja. Many are available around the Oshodi market area or the Agege Motor Road axis.
At Egbeda, take a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a short Danfo shuttle into Unity Estate. Confirm with the driver if they go into your specific part of Unity Estate.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak hour congestion. Afternoons between 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM are also usually lighter. Avoid 6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport is generally safe during the day, but 'one-chance' incidents (where criminals pose as public transport operators) can occur, especially in isolated areas or late at night. Stick to busy bus stops and well-known routes.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT is available for parts of the journey (e.g., CMS to Oshodi), but not for the entire route. There are no intra-city rail options currently serving this specific route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
