Drop at Obalende, cross over to the Lekki/Ajah park, and board another Danfo heading towards Ajah or Chevron. Tell the conductor you will drop at Agungi.
Drop at Agungi Bus Stop on the Lekki-Epe Expressway. If your final address is inside the estate, enter a registered estate Keke or take a short walk.

Best Time to Travel
To beat the morning rush hour traffic heading to the Island, leave Bariga between 5:30 AM and 6:15 AM. If you miss this window, wait until 10:00 AM when the Third Mainland Bridge traffic eases down. For evening travel back, avoid moving between 4:30 PM and 8:30 PM unless you are ready to sit in heavy gridlock.
Safety Rating
Medium - The route is generally safe during the day, but you must look sharp. Pickpockets operate heavily at major interchange junctions like Obalende, Yaba, and CMS. Keep your phone and wallet safe inside your bag, especially when rushing to board a Danfo. Avoid late-night movements around Bariga Under-bridge and Agungi bus stop after 10:00 PM because of street boys and minor cult clashes.
BRT / Rail / Water
There is no direct BRT lane or train network linking Bariga straight to Agungi. However, you can use the regulated LAGRIDE cars or standard Lagos State buses from Obalende/CMS to Lekki, which charge slightly regulated prices but still feel the current inflation pressure.
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.
