Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, travel very early in the morning (before 6:30 AM), late morning (after 10:00 AM), or early afternoon (between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM). Avoid peak hours (6:30 AM - 9:30 AM and 4:30 PM - 8:00 PM) when travel times can easily quadruple.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening travel can pose 'one-chance' risks, particularly if waiting at isolated bus stops or boarding unofficial vehicles. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid late-night travel if possible.
