Best Time to Travel
To avoid the worst traffic, travel very early in the morning (before 6:00 AM) or late morning (after 10:00 AM). Evening rush hour is also intense, so if possible, travel after 7:00 PM. Weekends generally have lighter traffic, but major events can still cause congestion.
Safety Rating
Medium. Daytime travel is generally safe. For evening and night travel, exercise caution. Always try to use well-lit bus stops and avoid boarding buses that are not clearly marked as public transport or that appear suspicious. Be aware of 'one-chance' syndicates, especially when boarding buses late at night; use established bus parks or well-populated stops. Keep your valuables out of sight.
