Are local buses, trams, trains or taxis safe and affordable?
Yes. - Jun 2019
Trains only run in some regions. Buses are reasonably good, but can be sporadic in some areas at night. Taxis are fairly expensive. It's best to have your own transport options unless you live close to the city or close to a major transport corridor. - Feb 2015
