If you have been following the real estate news in Lagos lately, you must have heard about Elerangbe. Many people call this area the "New Lagos" because of the massive projects coming to that side. Whether you are looking to buy land or you want to visit someone in the area, knowing how to get there and what to expect is very important.
Elerangbe is not just a small village anymore; it is a fast-growing hub for developers and investors. However, because it is quite far from the Lagos mainland, many people get confused about the exact location and the best way to travel there without spending too much on transport fare.
Elerangbe is located in the Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area (LGA) of Lagos State. It is situated deep along the Lekki-Epe Expressway axis. If you are driving from Ajah towards Epe, Elerangbe is on the left side of the road, a few kilometers after you pass the Eleko Junction.
The terrain in Elerangbe is mostly dry land, which is why it is very popular for building houses. It shares borders with other developing areas like Alaro City and is very close to the site of the proposed Lekki International Airport. The area is peaceful, but the road inside the community is still under development, so expect some dusty paths if you leave the main tarred road.
To get to Elerangbe, you basically have one major route: the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Depending on where you are coming from in Lagos, your journey will most likely pass through Ajah.
If you are coming from the Mainland (like Oshodi or Ikeja), you need to enter a bus going to CMS or Obalende, then take another bus to Ajah. From Ajah, you will "enter bus" heading towards Epe. You must tell the driver or the conductor that you will "drop" at Elerangbe Junction. Once you drop at the junction, there are many commercial motorcycles (okada) and tricycles (keke) that can take you deep into the Elerangbe community.
Transport fares in Lagos change based on the time of day and the weather. Below is a table showing the estimated fare ranges to reach Elerangbe Junction.
| Route | Transport Mode | Fare Range (₦) |
|---|---|---|
| Ajah to Elerangbe Junction | Yellow Bus (Danfo) | ₦800 - ₦1,200 |
| CMS to Elerangbe (Direct Epe Bus) |
| Coaster Bus/Danfo |
| ₦1,500 - ₦2,500 |
| Oshodi to Elerangbe (Via Ajah) | Danfo/BRT to Ajah | ₦2,000 - ₦3,500 |
| Elerangbe Junction to Inside Community | Keke Napep / Okada | ₦300 - ₦700 |
If you want a comfortable trip, it is better to use organized parks. Here are the best places to find a bus going towards Elerangbe:
1. Leave Early: The Lekki-Epe Expressway can have heavy traffic, especially at the Ajah and Eleko axis. If you have an appointment in Elerangbe, leave your house by 6:00 AM.
2. Identify Landmarks: Tell the conductor you are dropping at "Elerangbe Junction" before the bus moves. This helps them remember you.
3. Check the Weather: During the rainy season, some of the inner roads in Elerangbe can be muddy. Wear appropriate footwear if you plan to walk into the estates.
4. Hold Change: Always have "small money" (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) to pay the bus conductors to avoid stories.
Yes, it is a very quiet and fast-developing area, though it is still a bit far from the city center. Q: Which LGA is Elerangbe under?
