Early mornings (before 6:30 AM) or late mornings (after 10:00 AM) to avoid peak hour traffic. Afternoons between 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM are also usually clearer. Avoid 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
Safety Rating
Medium. While generally safe during the day, 'one-chance' incidents can occur, particularly when traveling late at night or in less crowded vehicles. Always be aware of your surroundings and avoid displaying valuables.
BRT / Rail / Water
