The bus will take you through Apapa Road, Ijora Causeway, over the Eko Bridge, and into the Apogbon/CMS area. Alight at the 'CMS Bus Stop' or 'Obalende Bus Stop', which are major transport hubs.
At CMS or Obalende, look for another 'Danfo' or 'Korope' (smaller bus) heading towards 'Lekki Phase 1', 'Admiralty Way', or 'Maroko'. Confirm the destination with the driver or conductor.
This bus will take you along New Marina Road, Ahmadu Bello Way, Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue, Maroko Road, and onto the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Alight at 'Lekki 1st Gate' or further inside Lekki Phase 1 on 'Admiralty Way' depending on your exact destination.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, travel between 9:30 AM - 3:00 PM on weekdays, or early mornings (before 6:00 AM) and late evenings (after 8:00 PM). Weekends generally have lighter traffic, but Saturday afternoons can still be busy.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel, especially on buses that are not full or on less-trafficked routes, carries a higher risk of 'one-chance' incidents. Always be aware of your surroundings, avoid displaying valuables, and use well-lit, busy bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT service from Liverpool. However, you can connect to BRT services from major hubs like CMS or TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square) which have routes extending to Lekki Phase 1.
