From Victoria Island (e.g., Ozumba Mbadiwe, Eko Hotel roundabout), board a 'Danfo' heading towards Lekki Phase 1 or Ikate.
Alight at Lekki Phase 1 Gate, Ikate, or Jakande Bus Stop. Find another 'Danfo' going to Ajah (Underbridge).
From Ajah Underbridge, cross to the other side of the road or ask for buses/Keke going into Badore. Board a 'Danfo' or 'Keke Napep' heading directly to Badore.
Always confirm the bus destination with the conductor before boarding to avoid going the wrong way.
Have smaller denominations of Naira notes ready, as conductors may not always have change for large bills.
If you are in a hurry, sometimes paying a bit extra for a 'short-trip' bus going further than your immediate stop can save time, but confirm the fare first.
Traveling late at night carries higher risks. While the Lekki-Ajah expressway is generally busy, parts of Badore Road can be dark and less populated. It's best to complete your journey before 9:00 PM. If you must travel late, try to use well-lit public transport and stay vigilant.
'One-chance' refers to criminals posing as public transport operators (e.g., Danfo, shared taxi) who rob passengers. To avoid this, always use marked, registered public buses, and avoid boarding vehicles that seem suspicious or have very few passengers, especially at odd hours or isolated stops.
It's advisable to carry smaller denominations for bus fares, as conductors often don't have change for large notes. For the entire trip, having ₦2,000 - ₦3,000 in smaller notes should be sufficient for transport and some emergencies. Most bus payments are cash-based, though BRT requires a card.
During peak hours, traffic is almost unavoidable on the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Some drivers might use inner roads within Lekki Phase 1 or Ikate to bypass parts of the main road, but these often lead to different bottlenecks. The most effective way to avoid traffic is by traveling during off-peak hours.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, travel very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM). For the evening, after 8:00 PM is usually better. Weekends often have lighter traffic, but can still be busy, especially around market areas.
Safety Rating
Medium. The Lekki-Ajah axis is generally considered safe, but 'one-chance' incidents can occur, especially with unmarked vehicles late at night. Badore Road itself can be dark in some sections, so daytime travel is advisable. Always be vigilant.
BRT / Rail / Water
BRT buses operate along parts of the Lekki-Epe Expressway (e.g., from CMS to Ajah), but a direct BRT route into Badore is not available. There is no train service for this intra-city route.
