From Shasha, take a 'Danfo' (yellow bus) or 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) heading towards Egbeda or Akowonjo Roundabout.
At Egbeda/Akowonjo, find a 'Danfo' going directly to Oshodi Under Bridge. Confirm 'Oshodi' as the destination.
From Oshodi Under Bridge (popularly known as 'Oshodi Oke' or 'Oshodi Isale' depending on exact spot), look for a 'Danfo' heading to CMS (Central Business District) or TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square). These are major bus terminals on the Island.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, the best times to travel are mid-morning (around 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM). Weekends, especially Sundays, usually have lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, it's wise to be aware of your surroundings, especially in crowded bus stops like Oshodi and CMS. Pickpocketing can occur. 'One-chance' incidents are rare on popular inter-stage routes but always use established public transport and avoid late-night travel if possible. Keep valuables secure.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT services are a key part of this journey, especially from Oshodi/Ikeja to CMS/TBS. There is currently no intra-city rail service available for this specific route.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
