Depart Adeola Odeku Street and take a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) heading towards Obalende or CMS.
At Obalende Bus Stop, disembark and look for a 'Danfo' heading towards 'Ajah' or 'Sangotedo' along the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
From Ajah Bus Stop (or your specific destination further down Lekki-Epe Expressway), take a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) or another 'Danfo' to your final destination within Lekki.
Always confirm the fare with the 'conductor' before boarding to avoid disputes later.
Keep small denominations of Naira handy, as conductors often don't have change for large notes.
Be mindful of your belongings, especially in crowded buses and bus stops.
If you are going to a specific estate, tell the conductor so they can drop you at the nearest bus stop.
Yes, LASTMA (Lagos State Traffic Management Authority) and VIO (Vehicle Inspection Office) officials are frequently seen along Ahmadu Bello Way, especially around Falomo, and at various points on the Lekki-Epe Expressway, particularly at major junctions like Ikate, Chevron, and Ajah. They primarily enforce traffic rules and vehicle roadworthiness. As a passenger, ensure your driver complies with regulations to avoid delays.
While major roads like Lekki-Epe Expressway are generally well-lit and busy, it's advisable to complete your journey before 9:00 PM if possible. If you must travel late, opt for well-established public transport (like BRT if still operating) or a known taxi service. Avoid isolated bus stops or routes, and always inform someone of your travel plans.

Best Time to Travel
The ideal time to travel is outside of peak hours: generally between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM, or after 8:00 PM on weekdays. Avoid 6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:00 PM, as traffic can add hours to your journey, turning a 39-minute trip into 2-3 hours or more.
Safety Rating
Medium. While the Lekki axis is generally considered safer than some other parts of Lagos, travelers should always be vigilant. 'One-chance' incidents, though rare, can occur, especially when traveling late at night or in sparsely populated areas. Always use well-lit, busy bus stops and avoid isolated routes. Be aware of pickpockets in crowded public transport.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is a viable option for a significant portion of this route, particularly from CMS/Obalende to Ajah along the Lekki-Epe Expressway. There is no rail service available for this specific intrastate route.
