Board a commercial bus (Danfo) heading towards Ajah. Make sure to confirm with the conductor that they are going 'Ajah Under Bridge' or further down, as some routes might terminate earlier.

💡Pro Travel Tips
Always confirm your destination with the bus conductor before boarding and paying to avoid miscommunication and going off route.
Avoid peak hours (typically 6 AM - 9 AM and 4 PM - 7 PM on weekdays) as traffic congestion on Lekki-Epe Expressway can significantly prolong your journey.
Keep smaller denominations of Naira (₦100, ₦200, ₦500) ready for bus fares, as conductors often have limited change.

❓Route FAQ
Is Lekki Phase 2 the same as Abraham Adesanya Estate?
While Abraham Adesanya Estate is a very prominent and well-known residential development within the Lekki corridor, Lekki Phase 2 generally refers to the broader, developing area stretching from the vicinity of Abraham Adesanya Estate towards Ogombo and beyond along the Lekki-Epe Expressway, encompassing various estates, communities, and landmarks. So, while closely associated, Lekki Phase 2 is a larger geographical designation.
What is the best time to travel this route to avoid traffic?
To significantly reduce travel time and avoid the notorious Lagos traffic, it's best to travel during off-peak hours. These typically include mid-morning (around 10 AM - 1 PM) and early afternoon (2 PM - 3 PM). Weekends, particularly Sunday mornings, also offer generally lighter traffic conditions compared to weekdays.
Are there direct buses from Lekki Phase 1 to Lekki Phase 2?
Direct commercial buses specifically labeled 'Lekki Phase 1 to Lekki Phase 2' are uncommon. For journeys to Lekki Phase 2 via Danfo, you will typically need to board a bus heading 'down Lekki-Epe Expressway' or specifically to 'Ajah', and then change to another bus or Keke Napep at Ajah Under Bridge to reach Abraham Adesanya Estate or further into Lekki Phase 2.
