Locate the CMS BRT Terminal, which is a major bus park situated directly under the Eko Bridge on Lagos Island. It's easily recognizable by the red BRT buses and dedicated lanes.
Purchase or top up your Cowry Card (Lagos State's official transport card) at the ticket booth within the BRT terminal. Cash is generally not accepted for BRT rides.
Board a BRT bus clearly marked 'Oshodi' or 'Mile 2'. Both routes pass through the Oshodi Transport Interchange. Tap your Cowry Card on the validator as you enter the bus.
The bus will travel across the Eko Bridge, then the Third Mainland Bridge, and connect to the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway. Enjoy the view while the bus uses its dedicated lane, which helps to bypass some traffic.
Alight at the Oshodi Transport Interchange BRT Terminal. This is a large, multi-story bus terminal where you can connect to other parts of Oshodi or other destinations.
