Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From your location in Alaro City, take a local Keke (tricycle) or shared taxi (Danfo/mini-bus) to the main Lekki-Epe Expressway junction near Eleko or a major bus stop like Eleko Junction.
At Eleko Junction, look for a Danfo (yellow mini-bus) or a larger public bus heading towards Ajah / Sangotedo / Lekki Phase 1. Confirm the destination with the conductor. This leg covers a significant portion of the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
From Ajah Under Bridge or Sangotedo, you have two main choices: either take a BRT bus (red or blue large buses) going towards Falomo/CMS or another Danfo heading towards Lekki Phase 1 / Ozumba Mbadiwe. BRT is usually faster and more comfortable.
Once you arrive at Lekki Phase 1 or Falomo Roundabout, you are very close to Ikoyi. Look for a shared taxi, Keke, or another short-distance Danfo heading into Ikoyi (e.g., towards Awolowo Road, Bourdillon Road, or Ikoyi Club). Be specific about your final destination in Ikoyi.

Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late evening (after 8:00 PM) to avoid peak Lagos traffic. Mid-day (10:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can also be less congested.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' incidents (unlicensed vehicles used for robbery) can occur, especially when using unmarked shared taxis or at night. Stick to designated bus stops and reputable transport options.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available from Ajah/Sangotedo towards Falomo/CMS, which can be used for a segment of the journey. There is no rail service connecting Alaro City to Ikoyi.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
