Showing the primary/fastest route plan
From Banana Island, take a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a shared Danfo (yellow mini-bus) to Obalende Bus Stop. You might need to walk a short distance to the main road near the Ikoyi link bridge to find public transport.
At Obalende, locate the BRT terminal. Take a BRT bus heading towards Mile 2 or Badagry. BRT buses are usually red or blue and offer a more structured and often faster service. If BRT isn't available or preferred, you can also find regular Danfo buses going to 'Mile 2' or 'Badagry' from Obalende.
Once you arrive at Mile 2 Under Bridge, cross to the side of the road heading towards Badagry. You will find numerous Danfo buses and Keke Napep waiting to take passengers into Satellite Town. Ask for 'Satellite Town' or 'Navy Town Gate'.

Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Mid-day (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM) can also be manageable. Avoid peak hours from 6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:00 PM - 7:30 PM, as travel time can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. While daylight travel is generally safe, exercise caution, especially when traveling late in the evening or at night. Be aware of 'one-chance' vehicle operators, particularly on longer routes or if taking unmarked vehicles. Stick to designated bus stops and well-lit areas.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for a significant portion of this journey, specifically from Obalende/CMS to Mile 2. There is no direct rail service connecting Banana Island to Satellite Town for passenger travel.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
