Depending on your budget and how much comfort you want, you can use popular yellow buses (Danfo), the new Lagos Blue Line Rail, or modern ride-hailing cars. Because of fuel price increases, transport fares go up and down, but this guide provides the real current price ranges you will meet on the road.

Showing the primary/fastest route plan
Walk or take a short drop to Orile Bus Stop along the expressway. Look for conductors shouting 'Mile 2' or 'Agboju/Festac'. Board the yellow Danfo bus.
Stay on the bus as it drives past Alaba Suru and drop at Mile 2 Bus Stop. This is a major junction.
From Mile 2, cross the pedestrian bridge safely to the other side. Locate the Keke Marwa (tricycle) park heading into Amuwo Odofin or Festac.
Board the Keke and tell the rider your exact final stop within Amuwo Odofin, such as 2nd Avenue, 41 Road, or Apple Junction.

Best Time to Travel
For morning travel, the best time to leave Orile is before 6:30 AM to beat the massive Mile 2 gridlock, or wait until the off-peak period between 10:00 AM and 3:30 PM. For evening travel, move before 4:30 PM or after 8:30 PM when the heavy workers' rush hour has reduced.
Safety Rating
Medium - You must be very alert, especially around Orile Under-bridge and Mile 2. These areas have many pickpockets, 'one-chance' criminals, and area boys. Do not hold your phone openly in traffic, keep your bags zipped closely to your front, and avoid moving late at night (after 9:00 PM). Only enter commercial vehicles at designated park ranks rather than picking them up randomly on the highway.
BRT / Rail / Water
Yes, the Lagos Blue Line Rail is fully available and highly recommended for this route! You can board the train directly from the Orile Station and drop at the Mile 2 Station, which brings you right next to Amuwo Odofin. Dedicated BRT buses also run along the Lagos-Badagry Expressway corridor, though they share some lanes with regular traffic around construction zones.
Due to Ajah flyover layouts, returning U-turns are best performed at designated roundabouts rather than illegal bypasses to avoid traffic penalties.
