Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Parkview Estate, take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or a local 'Danfo' (yellow bus) heading towards Obalende.
At Obalende, cross to the other side (ask for directions to the CMS/TBS bound buses) and board a 'Danfo' or 'Coaster' bus going to CMS (Central Business District) or TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square).
At CMS, locate the BRT terminal. Purchase or top up your BRT card and board a BRT bus designated for 'Ikorodu Terminal' or 'Ikorodu Garage'. This is a direct route and often bypasses some traffic.
Upon arrival at Ikorodu Terminal, take a 'Keke Napep' or local 'Danfo' heading to 'Ebute Ikorodu'.

Best Time to Travel
The best times to travel are early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings to early afternoons (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious traffic. Travel times can easily double or triple during peak hours (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM).
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel in some parts of Lagos can pose risks. 'One-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed by criminals posing as commercial drivers/passengers) are a concern, particularly on less busy routes or late at night. Always board buses at designated bus stops and avoid empty vehicles, especially after dark. Keep valuables out of sight and be aware of your surroundings.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for a significant segment of this journey, specifically from CMS/TBS to Ikorodu Terminal, offering a more structured and often faster transport option due to dedicated lanes. There are no direct rail services or local flight options for this specific intrastate route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
