Not really well developed.
Some busses stop at 6:30p.m.
For me it is safe.

They are on time because they drive so fast it's bloody dangerous. Like for the 25yr old local girl thats been killed round the corner on the beach road past Pereybere today. Nothing left of the car. Is it really necessary for buses to do 100km/h between 2 stops that are a km apart????! Angry :(
