From your exact location in Ikoyi, make your way to a major bus stop like Falomo Roundabout or Keffi Street junction. You might take a short Keke Napep ride if far from the main road.
Board a commercial bus (Danfo) from Falomo heading towards 'Lekki Phase 1' or 'Jakande'. Tell the conductor you're dropping at 'Lekki Phase 1 Gate' or 'Ebeano Supermarket'.
Alight at Lekki Phase 1 Gate. You'll need to cross to the other side of the Lekki-Epe Expressway to find buses heading further down the expressway. Be careful when crossing.
From the Lekki Phase 1 Bus Stop, board another commercial bus. Look for buses heading towards 'Ajah', 'Badore', 'Sangotedo', or 'Awoyaya'. Confirm with the conductor that they pass 'Chevron Roundabout' or 'Chevron Bus Stop'.
Drop off at the Chevron Roundabout bus stop. From here, your final destination within Chevron Drive is usually a short distance away.
At Chevron Roundabout, board a Keke Napep (tricycle) or a local mini-bus if available, to take you into the specific street or estate within Chevron Drive you intend to reach.
Always carry sufficient small denominations of Naira (₦50, ₦100, ₦200, ₦500) as conductors rarely have change for large notes.
Travel outside peak hours (7-9 AM and 4-7 PM) to significantly reduce travel time and avoid intense crowding on buses.
Keep your bags and valuables secure, especially in crowded buses and bus stops, to prevent petty theft.
To minimize traffic, aim to travel between 10 AM and 3 PM on weekdays. Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) and late evenings (after 8 PM) are also generally clearer. Weekends are usually better, but still expect some traffic around popular spots, especially around shopping centers and churches.
While major roads are generally safe, it's advisable to use ride-hailing services like Uber or Bolt for late-night travel on this route. If using commercial buses, ensure you board from well-lit, busy bus stops and stay vigilant; avoid isolated stops.
Currently, there isn't a direct BRT or train line covering the entire Ikoyi to Chevron Drive route. The most efficient public transport involves a combination of commercial buses (Danfo) and possibly Keke Napep for the final leg. Ride-hailing remains the most direct and comfortable alternative for this specific route.
