Purchase a BRT card or top up your existing one. Board a BRT bus clearly marked for 'CMS' or 'TBS' (Tafawa Balewa Square).
Enjoy the ride across the Third Mainland Bridge. Alight at the final BRT stop, which will either be CMS (Marina) or TBS.
From CMS/TBS, you will need to take another short ride into Victoria Island. Look for Danfo buses or Keke Napep (tricycles) heading towards specific areas like Ozumba Mbadiwe, Ahmadu Bello Way, or Adeola Odeku. Confirm your exact destination with the driver.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid the worst of morning rush hour. Mid-afternoons (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) are best for returning. Avoid peak evening rush (4:00 PM - 7:00 PM) if possible.
Safety Rating
Medium. Lagos public transport is generally safe for daily travel. However, be aware of pickpockets, especially in crowded buses and terminals. 'One-chance' incidents are rare on established BRT routes but can occur with less regulated shared taxis or Keke Napep at late hours. Always use well-lit, busy stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a primary and highly recommended option for this route. There is no rail service connecting Oworonshoki directly to Victoria Island.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
