Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:00 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Mid-afternoons (between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM) can also be less congested. Avoid traveling during evening rush hour (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as travel time can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. While Mayfair Gardens itself is a secure residential estate, the journey along the Lekki-Epe Expressway, especially in public transport, carries some risks. 'One-chance' incidents (where passengers are robbed by criminals posing as public transport operators) can occur, particularly when boarding vehicles from isolated spots or late at night. Stick to busy, well-lit bus stops and clearly marked public buses (Danfo).
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT or rail service from Lekki Phase 1 to Mayfair Gardens. While BRT operates on parts of the Lekki-Epe Expressway, it does not extend directly to Mayfair Gardens and would require multiple transfers, making it less efficient than commercial buses (Danfo) for this specific route. There are no train services available for this intrastate route.
