Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Parkview Estate gate, take a 'Danfo' (yellow bus) heading towards Falomo. These buses are usually available right outside the estate.
At Falomo, alight at the bus stop near the bridge. Look for a 'Danfo' heading to CMS (Costain/Marina). Be aware of 'LASTMA' officials directing traffic around Falomo.
From CMS, you can either take another 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' to Idumota/Balogun market area, then walk to Bamgbose Street. Or, if you're comfortable with walking (about 15-20 minutes), Bamgbose is a reasonable walk from CMS, past Tinubu Square.

Hotspots
Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) are best to avoid heavy traffic. Afternoons from 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM can also be less congested. Avoid 7:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. During the day, the route is generally safe. However, pickpocketing is common in crowded market areas like Idumota and Balogun. Avoid displaying valuables. Evening travel requires more caution due to reduced visibility and potential for petty crime, especially on Lagos Island. 'One-chance' incidents are rare on these specific short, busy routes but always be aware of your surroundings.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT is available partially. You can take a feeder bus or Keke to the Falomo BRT terminal and then a BRT bus to CMS. There is no direct BRT route to Bamgbose, requiring a final leg by Keke or walking. There is no train service for this specific intra-city route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
