Ajah Under Bridge Bus Stop / Ajah Market Bus Stop
Head to the main Ajah Market bus stop, typically located around the Ajah Under Bridge area. Look for commercial buses (Danfos) heading towards Lekki, Jakande, or CMS/Obalende. Confirm with the conductor that they are going past Chevron Roundabout.
Chevron Roundabout Bus Stop
Board the bus and inform the conductor you'll alight at 'Chevron Roundabout' or 'Chevron Bus Stop'. This is a well-known junction. The journey should take approximately 15-30 minutes depending on traffic.
Chevron Roundabout
Upon alighting at Chevron Roundabout, you'll find numerous Keke Napeps (tricycles) and local taxis. Board a Keke or taxi and tell the driver 'Chevron Drive' or specify your exact destination within Chevron Drive (e.g., 'Chevron head office', 'Carlton Gate', 'Buena Vista Estate').
💡Pro Travel Tips
Always confirm the bus fare with the conductor before boarding to avoid disputes.
Keep small denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) as bus conductors and Keke drivers often do not have change for large notes.
Traffic can be significant, especially during peak hours (6:30 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM). Factor this into your travel time.
Be mindful of your belongings, especially in crowded bus stops and buses.
