Best Time to Travel
To avoid heavy traffic, plan to depart very early in the morning (between 5:00 AM and 6:30 AM) or later in the morning (around 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM). Avoid traveling during evening rush hours (4:00 PM to 8:00 PM) if possible, as this route experiences severe congestion.
Safety Rating
Medium. While major roads are generally safe during the day, caution is advised, especially when traveling late in the evening or at night. 'One-chance' incidents (where criminals pose as public transport operators) can occur. Always use well-lit bus stops and avoid empty or suspicious vehicles. Keep your belongings secure and out of sight.
