• From Yaba/Ojuelegba: You'll usually find buses going to Oshodi first, from where you can connect to Idimu. Some longer routes might have direct buses, but connections are common.
• From Egbeda/Ikotun: These are very close to Idimu. You'll easily find Keke Napeps (tricycles) or short-distance buses (korope) that will take you directly to various parts of Idimu like Pipeline, Idimu Roundabout, or Council Bus Stop.

Safety and Travel Tips for Idimu

Traveling in any busy part of Lagos, including Idimu, requires a few practical safety tips:

1. Travel During Daylight: For long distances, it’s generally safer and easier to travel during the day. If you must travel at night, stick to well-lit, busy routes and reliable transport options.
2. Confirm Your Destination: Always confirm with the driver or conductor that they are indeed going to your specific bus stop in Idimu before you enter the bus or Keke.
3. Be Aware of Your Surroundings: Keep an eye on your belongings, especially in crowded areas like bus stops and markets. Avoid displaying expensive gadgets openly.
4. Bargain Politely: For Keke Napep or Okada (motorcycle) rides, especially if you're taking a direct hire, it's common to agree on the fare before starting the journey. For public buses (Danfo), fares are usually fixed.
5. Keep Small Denominations: It’s always helpful to have smaller naira notes (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) for transport fares, as conductors sometimes claim not to have change for large notes.
6. Use Reputable Transport: Stick to recognized bus parks and public transport options. Avoid isolated or suspicious vehicles.
