Head to the main Anthony Bus Stop or any major bus stop along Ikorodu Road (e.g., Maryland) and board a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) heading towards Ojota.
At Ojota, disembark and look for buses heading to 'CMS' (Commercial Avenue), 'Obalende' or 'TBS' (Tafawa Balewa Square). CMS is often the most direct for onward travel to Lekki.
From CMS, locate buses going towards 'Ajah' or 'Lekki Phase 1'. Board one and alight at 'Marwa Bus Stop' (also known as Lekki Roundabout / Lekki 1 gate).
At Marwa Bus Stop, you'll find smaller buses ('Korope' or 'Lagos Bus') or Keke Napeps (tricycles) heading towards 'Chevron Drive'. Specify 'Chevron Roundabout' or your specific destination on Chevron Drive. If taking a 'Korope', it might drop you at the Chevron Roundabout, from where you might need another Keke for a short distance into Chevron Drive.
Travel early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) or late afternoon/evening to avoid peak traffic, especially on the Third Mainland Bridge and Lekki-Epe Expressway.
Always confirm the fare before boarding any commercial vehicle. Fares can fluctuate based on demand, time of day, and current fuel prices.
Keep smaller denominations of cash (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) as drivers rarely have change for large notes.
Be aware of your belongings, especially in crowded bus stops and buses.
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, it's best to travel very early in the morning (before 6:30 AM) or late morning/early afternoon (between 10 AM and 2 PM). Avoid peak hours from 7 AM - 9 AM and 4 PM - 7 PM as travel times can double.
Yes, commercial buses are generally safe for daily commuting. However, it's advisable to be aware of your surroundings, keep your belongings secure, and avoid late-night travel if unfamiliar with the route or bus stops.
No, there's no direct single-bus route from Anthony to Chevron Drive. You will always need to break the journey into multiple legs, typically via Ojota and CMS/Obalende/TBS before connecting to Lekki-bound transport.
Keke Napeps are generally restricted from major expressways like the Third Mainland Bridge and parts of the Lekki-Epe Expressway. They are excellent for the final leg from Marwa Bus Stop into Chevron Drive and within Lekki Phase 1/2, but not for the long-distance journey across the Lagoon.
If direct buses to CMS are scarce, look for buses going to 'Obalende' or 'TBS'. From Obalende/TBS, you can easily find plenty of buses heading to Lekki/Ajah, including those that pass Marwa Bus Stop, which is your interchange point for Chevron Drive.
