Locate the main bus park around Pen Cinema or Agege Market. Look for buses heading towards 'Ogba'.
Board a commercial Danfo bus heading towards Ogba. Confirm with the conductor that it's going towards 'Ogba County' or 'Ogba Aguda'.
Alight at the main Ogba Bus Stop, often referred to as 'Ogba County Bus Stop' or 'Ogba Aguda'. This is a major interchange.
From Ogba Bus Stop, you'll need to locate the section where buses for 'Berger' are parked or load passengers. Ask locals if unsure.
Board a commercial Danfo bus specifically heading to 'Berger'. These buses will take the inner roads to link up with the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Tell the conductor you're dropping at 'Berger' (Ojodu Berger). The bus will drop you off at the main Berger bus terminal, right off the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Traffic Awareness: Avoid peak hours (6-9 AM, 4-7 PM) if possible, as Ogba Road and the link to the expressway can be heavily congested, drastically increasing travel time.
Small Denominations: Always have small denominations of Naira (₦200, ₦500) ready to pay conductors, as they often don't have change for large notes.
Confirm Destination: When boarding, always loudly confirm your destination ('Berger!') with the conductor to ensure you're on the right bus and avoid misunderstandings.

Lagos-Ibadan Expressway
To avoid the worst of Lagos traffic, it's best to travel early in the mornings before 6:30 AM or late mornings after 10:00 AM. Evenings after 8:00 PM also tend to have lighter traffic, particularly on Ogba Road and the link to the expressway.
While commercial buses operate late, for solo travelers, especially females, it's generally safer to opt for ride-hailing services at night. Always share your trip details with a trusted contact and confirm driver/vehicle details.
For ride-hailing services, drivers might use inner roads through areas like Omole or Ojodu to bypass severe congestion on Ogba Road or the expressway bottleneck around Berger. However, commercial Danfo buses typically stick to their established main routes, making them less flexible during heavy traffic.
