From Parkview Estate, find a 'Danfo' bus or 'Keke Napep' going to Obalende or CMS.
At Obalende or CMS, look for a 'Danfo' bus heading to Oshodi. Confirm with the conductor that it's going to 'Oshodi Underbridge' or 'Oshodi Oke'.
From Oshodi Underbridge, locate the section for 'Danfo' buses going to Iyana-Ipaja.
At Iyana-Ipaja, take a 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' directly to Shasha. These are usually readily available.
Travel Tip: To save money, always ask for the price before boarding, as conductors might inflate fares for new passengers.
Travel Tip: Some 'Danfo' buses might offer 'short-trip' options if you're not going to the final destination, which can sometimes be cheaper or help you avoid long queues at major stops.
While generally safe, it's advisable to complete your journey before 8:00 PM, especially when using public transport like 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' to Shasha. If you must travel late, try to use a trusted private vehicle or a ride-hailing service if available, though this guide focuses on public transport.
Always ask questions! Confirm the bus's destination with the conductor or other passengers before boarding. Don't hesitate to ask for directions at major bus stops. Using Google Maps on your phone can also help you track your progress.
No, there are no direct public buses or 'Danfo' from Parkview Estate to Shasha. You will need to take multiple stages and change buses at major hubs like Obalende/CMS, Oshodi, or Iyana-Ipaja.
A 'Cowry Card' is a cashless payment card used for BRT buses and some other public transport options in Lagos. You can buy and top it up at any BRT terminal. It makes BRT travel smoother.

Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late in the evening (after 8:00 PM) to avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious traffic. Mid-day (11:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can also be less congested than peak hours.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel, particularly from Oshodi, Iyana-Ipaja, or Dopemu towards Shasha, can pose 'one-chance' risks or petty theft. Always board buses from well-lit, busy bus stops and avoid isolated areas. Keep valuables out of sight.
BRT / Rail / Water
