At Obalende Bus Stop, alight and look for another Danfo heading towards Ojota. These buses typically use the Third Mainland Bridge. Confirm 'Ojota' with the conductor.
Once you arrive at Ojota Bus Stop, cross to the side of the road that leads into New Garage. You might need to take a short Keke Napep (tricycle) or another short bus ride, or walk a short distance to reach the specific New Garage park.

Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst of Lagos's notorious traffic, travel early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM). Mid-day (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM) can also offer relatively clearer roads. Avoid traveling between 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM as this is peak hour with severe congestion.
Safety Rating
Medium. Day travel is generally safe. Evening travel, especially after 7:00 PM, carries 'one-chance' risks if you board buses from unofficial stops or vehicles that appear empty. Always use designated, busy bus stops and board buses with other passengers. New Garage itself is a large, busy motor park and is generally safe during its operational hours.
BRT / Rail / Water
The BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) system is available for a significant portion of this journey (specifically from CMS/TBS to Ojota). There is no direct rail option for this intracity route within Lagos.
If traveling between Lagos and mainland extensions via Berger, plan departures before 6:30 AM or after 8:30 PM to bypass heavy bottlenecks at the outward police posts.
