Best Time to Travel
Early morning (before 5:30 AM) to avoid the worst of the rush hour, or late morning (after 10:00 AM). Travelling after 7:00 PM can also be faster but comes with increased safety considerations.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, evening and late-night travel can pose risks. 'One-chance' incidents are a concern, particularly in unmarked 'Danfos' or isolated bus stops. Be vigilant, especially after dark.
