From Parkview Estate gate, take a 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' heading towards Falomo or Obalende.
At Obalende Bus Stop, look for 'Danfo' buses going to Ajah (specifically 'Ajah Underbridge' or 'Ajah Roundabout'). These are often larger 'Danfo' or 'Coaster' buses.
From Ajah Underbridge, you'll easily find 'Danfo' buses or 'Keke Napep' heading directly into Badore. Ask for 'Badore roundabout' or 'Badore terminal'.
**Localized Intel:** Be aware that 'LASTMA' and 'VIO' officials are often present around Falomo Bridge and Ajah Underbridge, ensuring traffic rules are followed. Drivers might take alternative routes to avoid them, which can sometimes add time.
**Money Saving Tip:** For the Obalende to Ajah leg, sometimes 'short-trip' buses are available that go shorter distances (e.g., to Lekki Phase 1, Jakande). If you take these, you'll need another bus from that point to Ajah, which can sometimes be cheaper overall but involves more changes.
Always confirm the destination with the bus conductor before boarding, especially for the Ajah to Badore leg, to avoid going the wrong way.
Traveling late at night (after 9 PM) on public transport can be risky due to 'one-chance' vehicles. It's advisable to complete your journey before then. If you must travel late, consider a trusted private taxi service if possible, or ensure your phone is charged and you're aware of your surroundings.
The best way to avoid traffic is to travel during off-peak hours: very early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or mid-day (10:30 AM - 2:30 PM). Using the BRT for the Lekki-Epe Expressway stretch can also significantly help mitigate traffic delays.
No, there are no direct public 'Danfo' or BRT routes from Parkview Estate directly to Badore. You will always need to break your journey into at least two or three stages, typically changing at Obalende and then again at Ajah.

Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings/early afternoons (10:30 AM - 2:30 PM) are best to avoid peak traffic. Evening rush hour (4:30 PM - 8:00 PM) can significantly extend travel time.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' incidents can occur in public transport, especially late at night. Be aware of your surroundings and avoid displaying valuables. Pickpockets are common in crowded buses and bus stops. Always enter public transport from designated bus stops.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT is available for a significant portion of the journey along the Lekki-Epe Expressway, specifically from Obalende/CMS to Ajah. There is no rail service or local flight option for this intra-city route within Lagos.
