Moving from Boundary (Ajegunle/Ojo axis) to Amuwo Odofin involves navigating the busy commercial corridors of Lagos West. Commuters can choose between direct yellow buses (Danfos), interconnected commercial tricycles (Kekes), or ride-hailing cars. Due to recent fuel subsidy removals and transport inflation, fares fluctuate heavily depending on the time of day and weather conditions.

Head to the main Boundary motor park and board a yellow commercial bus (Danfo) going towards Mile 2.
Stay on the bus through Wilmer and drop at the Mile 2 Under-bridge or Mile 2 Oke (top of the flyover).
Cross the pedestrian bridge safely to the other side of the expressway and head to the Amuwo Odofin / Festac park.
Board another short-distance Danfo or a Keke entering inside Amuwo Odofin or Festac Link Road.
Always hold your change ('change' or smaller denominations like ₦200 and ₦500) before you enter the bus to avoid drama with the conductor.
Listen carefully when the conductor shouts destinations so you do not board a bus heading toward a different route like Oshodi or Apapa.

Safety Rating
Medium - Watch out for pickpockets at Boundary and Mile 2 under-bridge, especially in the early mornings and late nights. Keep your phone and wallet secure. Avoid boarding 'one-chance' vehicles by only using designated, regulated motor parks.
BRT / Rail / Water
The Lagos Blue Rail Line runs through the Mile 2 interchange near this corridor, providing an excellent alternative for part of the journey. Standard regulated BRT buses also ply parts of the Badagry Expressway, though local Danfos and Kekes remain the most direct way to penetrate inside Amuwo Odofin.

Bypass the Ikeja Under-Bridge corridor from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM. Traffic builds rapidly due to commercial buses loading along the main road lanes.
Areas Affected
Olojo Drive
Due to inflation and current fuel hikes, the total cost for public transport ranges between ₦1,300 and ₦2,400. If you choose to use a ride-hailing car app, it will cost between ₦5,500 and ₦9,000 depending on traffic.
The fastest way to beat traffic is to use a combination of Kekes and short-distance Danfos. Kekes can easily maneuver through the narrow bottlenecks around Boundary and Mile 2 much better than large buses.
Mile 2 under-bridge is a major transport hub but has a medium-to-high risk for petty theft. Keep your bags zipped, do not display your smartphone openly, and avoid standing alone in dark areas during early mornings or late nights.
You cannot take the train directly from Boundary to Amuwo Odofin, but you can use the Mile 2 Train Station as a key landmark. The train is highly useful if you are coming from Lagos Island into Mile 2 before taking a final short bus or Keke into Amuwo Odofin.
