Step 1: From Super Bus Stop Area, take a 'Danfo' (yellow commercial bus) or a 'Keke Napep' (tricycle) heading towards Oshodi. Clearly state 'Oshodi Under Bridge' or 'Oshodi Transport Interchange' as your destination to the conductor.
Step 2: At Oshodi, proceed to the Oshodi Transport Interchange (BRT Terminal). Locate and board a BRT bus that is designated for CMS/TBS (Tafawa Balewa Square). Remember you will need a 'Cowry Card' to pay for BRT services.
Step 3: From the CMS/TBS bus stop, you will find other BRT buses or 'Danfo' buses specifically going into Lekki. Ask for the bus heading towards your specific drop-off point in Lekki (e.g., Lekki Phase 1, Ikate, Elegushi, Ajah).
BRT buses generally offer a faster and more comfortable experience due to their dedicated lanes.
Ensure you have a BRT 'Cowry Card' and sufficient credit, as cash is not accepted on BRT buses. Cards can be purchased and loaded at any BRT terminal.
Be vigilant for pickpockets, especially in crowded terminals like Oshodi.
Yes, ride-hailing apps are widely available in Lagos and offer a more direct, private, and convenient travel experience. However, this guide focuses on public transport options, which are generally more affordable.
For public transport like 'Danfo' or BRT, it's best to carry light luggage that can fit comfortably on your lap or at your feet. For larger bags, you might need to pay an extra fare for an 'attachment' (extra space) or consider using a private taxi service.
While major routes are generally well-lit, it is advisable to complete your journey before 8:00 PM if you are relying on public transport. If you must travel late, stick to well-lit, busy bus stops and consider using a reputable ride-hailing service for enhanced safety.
For 'Danfo' buses, cash payment is the standard. For BRT buses, you will need a 'Cowry Card' which can be purchased and loaded with credit at any BRT terminal. Cash is not accepted on BRT buses.

Best Time to Travel
To significantly reduce travel time, aim to depart very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or during late mornings (after 10:00 AM). Late evenings (after 7:00 PM) can also see reduced traffic but come with increased security considerations.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daylight travel on major routes and within established bus terminals is generally safe. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid openly displaying valuables. 'One-chance' incidents, where unsuspecting passengers are robbed, can occur, especially in less crowded public transport late at night or early morning. Stick to official bus stops and reputable transport options.
BRT / Rail / Water
The BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system is a highly recommended and reliable option for significant segments of this journey, particularly from Oshodi to CMS/TBS and then connecting to Lekki. There is currently no train service directly connecting these two points within Lagos.
