The Bustling Hub of Westfield: Serrekunda's Transportation Gateway

Getting There

• Walking

  If you are in the central area of Serrekunda, start by heading towards the main road, which is often bustling with people and local vendors. Walk towards the junction of Kairaba Avenue. Once you reach Kairaba Avenue, turn left and continue straight. You will pass several shops and mini-markets along the way. Keep an eye out for signs or locals who can direct you to Westfield. After approximately 15-20 minutes of walking, you will see the entrance to Westfield on your right. The landmark is known for its transportation services, so it should be a noticeable place.

• Bicycle

  If you have a bicycle, start from the Serrekunda market area. Head towards Kairaba Avenue, which is a main thoroughfare. Ride along the avenue, as it will take you directly towards Westfield. Make sure to keep to the side of the road where there are fewer vehicles. After about 10-15 minutes of cycling, you will reach Westfield on your right. It’s a popular spot, so you can park your bicycle nearby.

• Public Transport (Local Taxi)

  To reach Westfield using a local taxi, find a nearby taxi stand or flag down a taxi on the street. Tell the driver you want to go to Westfield in Serrekunda. The ride should take about 5-10 minutes depending on traffic. Taxis are common and relatively inexpensive. Once you arrive, look for the entrance where you will see the sign indicating Westfield.

• Public Transport (Gele-Gele)

  If you prefer using public transport, find a ‘gele-gele’ (shared minibus taxi) heading towards Westfield. These usually wait at designated stops. Board the gele-gele and tell the conductor you want to get off at Westfield. The journey will take around 10-15 minutes. Be attentive to your surroundings, as you will need to get off when you see the Westfield area; the drivers are familiar with the stop, so they can assist you.
