Keke Napep (tricycles) are excellent for shorter intra-Gbagada movements or connecting to/from main bus stops.

Head to the main Anthony Bus Stop, which is typically located on Ikorodu Road near the Anthony Village roundabout or on the inward lane heading towards Maryland/Oworonshoki.
Board a commercial yellow bus (Danfo) heading towards Oworonshoki, Gbagada, or Ketu/Mile 12 that plies the Oworonshoki Expressway. Always confirm your destination (Gbagada) with the bus conductor before boarding.
Alight at the Gbagada Expressway Bus Stop. This is the main stop on the expressway. From here, you can typically walk to immediate surrounding areas.
If your final destination is deeper into Gbagada Estate (e.g., Ifako, Medina Estate, Soluyi), you will need to board a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a smaller commercial bus (Korope) that are readily available at the Gbagada Expressway Bus Stop.
Always confirm your destination with the conductor before boarding to ensure the bus is going your way.
Keep your belongings secure, especially in crowded buses and during boarding/alighting.
Have smaller denominations of Naira notes for bus fares, as conductors may not always have change for large notes.
Traffic can be very heavy during peak hours (6 AM-9 AM and 4 PM-8 PM), significantly increasing travel time. Plan accordingly.
The cheapest way is by taking a commercial bus (Danfo). The direct fare from Anthony Bus Stop to Gbagada Expressway Bus Stop will typically be around ₦400-₦500 in.
By commercial bus, it generally takes 15-25 minutes in free-flowing traffic. During peak hours (morning and evening rush), the journey can extend to 30-50 minutes due to congestion. Ride-hailing services offer similar durations but might navigate slightly faster depending on specific routes taken.
Yes, Uber and Bolt are readily available in both Anthony and Gbagada. They provide a comfortable, direct, and convenient option, albeit at a higher cost than public buses.
Generally, public transport in Lagos is safe, but it's important to be cautious. Always be aware of your surroundings, keep your belongings secure, and avoid openly displaying valuables. For ride-hailing, confirm the driver's identity and share your trip details for added safety.
If your final destination is deep within Gbagada Estate (e.g., Ifako, Medina, Soluyi), your best bet is to take a Danfo bus to the Gbagada Expressway Bus Stop. From there, you can easily find Keke Napeps (tricycles) or smaller commercial buses (Korope) that ply the inner roads of Gbagada and can take you directly to your specific street or area.
