Best Time to Travel
Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) and mid-afternoons (between 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM) to avoid peak hour traffic. Weekends generally have lighter traffic.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, it's important to be aware of your surroundings, especially in crowded bus stops and while boarding public transport. Avoid late-night travel if possible. 'One-chance' incidents (where criminals pose as public transport operators) are a risk, so always board from designated stops and look for vehicles with other passengers.
