At Obalende, look for another 'Danfo' going to CMS (Central Business District).
From CMS, locate the main commercial bus park and board a bus heading to Apapa. Ask for buses going towards 'Apapa Wharf', 'Barracks Bus Stop', or 'Creek Road' directly if available.

Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are very early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) on weekdays. Avoid peak rush hours between 6:30 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM, when traffic can be extremely heavy. Weekends generally have lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daytime travel is generally safe, but the Apapa area, especially around the port and industrial zones, can be less secure at night. Be cautious of 'one-chance' vehicles when boarding commercial buses, particularly if traveling late in the evening. Always secure your belongings in crowded bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT or rail service that covers this entire route. You will primarily rely on commercial buses ('Danfo') and 'Keke Napep' (tricycles). Ferries offer an alternative for part of the journey across the lagoon.
Heavy delivery trucks and logistics vans must take the service lane under the Ojuelegba bridge due to strict height restriction barriers on the flyover.
