Travel Tips for Staying Safe at Night

Travelling at night can feel intimidating, but with the right tools – like the Breeze App – and a few simple safety precautions, your journey can be much safer and less stressful. Here are some essential tips for staying safe and comfortable when using public transport after dark.

  1. Plan Your Journey in Advance

One of the best ways to ensure a smooth night-time journey is to plan ahead. Check for any potential disruptions along your route and use free apps like Breeze to map out your trip. Breeze provides real-time updates for buses and trains, helping you avoid long waits in the cold or dark. Knowing exactly when your bus or train will arrive reduces your time spent at potentially unsafe stops, making Breeze an indispensable travel companion. 

  1. Choose Well-Lit and Busy Routes

Whether you choose bus or train travel, where possible, select routes with stops located in well-lit areas and those with plenty of foot traffic. This simple precaution can make a big difference to your safety.

  1. Stay Connected and Informed

Keeping your phone charged is essential when travelling at night. Breeze features integrations like Strut Safe, a volunteer-based service offering reassurance to anyone walking home alone. This added feature ensures you stay connected and safe, showcasing why Breeze is one of the top transport apps for night travel.

  1. Stick to Populated Areas

When travelling by train or bus, try to avoid sitting in empty carriages or isolated areas. On trains, opt for a carriage with more passengers. On a bus, especially at night, sit near the driver or on the lower deck of a double-decker bus where you’re more visible.

  1. Keep Your Valuables Secure

Busy public transport can unfortunately create opportunities for theft. Keep your valuables hidden and secure in your bag, and avoid leaving any belongings unattended.

  1. Trust Your Instincts

If you ever feel uneasy, don’t hesitate to move to a safer spot. For instance, if someone nearby is acting aggressively, intoxicated, or making you uncomfortable, move to another carriage or sit elsewhere if you’re on a bus. If needed, exit at the next station and alert staff if you feel a situation requires intervention. 

  1. Try to Avoid Transfers

Whenever possible, opt for direct routes to minimise unnecessary transfers between buses or trains. Changing services can add both time and risk to your journey, especially at night. Breeze makes it easy to identify direct routes or those with fewer changes, ensuring a safer and more convenient travel experience.

By using Breeze – the ultimate journey planner app – you can confidently navigate night-time travel with features designed to keep you informed, secure, and at ease. Download the Breeze travel app today to enhance your travel experience across the UK.
