Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Banana Island, take a Keke Napep or a shared Danfo to CMS or Obalende.
At CMS or Obalende, board a BRT bus heading to Mile 2. This is usually faster and more comfortable than a regular Danfo for this leg.
At Mile 2, proceed to the Badagry park. Look for long-distance Danfos or 'coaster' buses specifically heading to Badagry or Seme Border. Confirm with the conductor that they pass through Badagry Roundabout.
Once you get to Badagry Roundabout, alight and look for a Keke Napep or local Danfo heading into Iworo. Confirm the exact destination within Iworo as it's a community.

Best Time to Travel
The best time to travel is very early in the morning (e.g., 5:30 AM - 7:00 AM) to beat the peak hour traffic out of Ikoyi and through central Lagos. Alternatively, mid-day (11:00 AM - 2:00 PM) can offer less congestion, but the journey will still be long. Avoid evening travel (after 4:00 PM) as traffic builds up significantly, and late-night travel on the Badagry axis is not advisable due to security concerns and poor road visibility.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, the long distance and sections of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway can be isolated, particularly at night. Be aware of 'one-chance' syndicates, especially when boarding shared vehicles at major parks like Mile 2. Always opt for designated park vehicles and avoid boarding vehicles by the roadside late in the evening.
