Walk from Ruxton Road to the main Awolowo Road. Look for a 'Danfo' (yellow bus) heading towards Obalende or CMS.
At Obalende, alight and ask for buses going to 'Ajah'. Board a direct 'Danfo' that will take you along Ozumba Mbadiwe Avenue and the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
Alight at 'Ajah' roundabout. From Ajah, you will need to take another 'Danfo' or a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) directly into Lekki Phase 2. Be specific about your destination within Phase 2.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, aim to travel mid-morning (around 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM) or early afternoon (around 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM). Avoid peak rush hours (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:30 PM - 8:00 PM) if possible, as journey times can double or triple.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daytime travel is generally safe. However, 'one-chance' scenarios (unscrupulous drivers/passengers who rob travelers) can occur, especially when boarding buses at less busy stops or late at night. Always board buses at designated, busy bus stops. Keep belongings secure and avoid displaying valuables.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) is available for a significant portion of this route, specifically from CMS/TBS to Ajah. There is no train service available for this intra-city route.
Private and public transit vehicles entering Abuja city center via the City Gate must maintain the 50km/h speed limit to avoid FRSC safety penalties.
