Safety wise I mean. It starts at 7.45am so would mean walking through the city in the early morning...might be dark at that time? Or am I just being paranoid..

at that time of morning there should be a fair few people around if it's a city, use the same safety rules you would use normally i;e no headphones, assertive walking etc.

That's not an early morning job, a lot of people will be up and about by then I'm sure you will fine.

Should be plenty of folk about at that time.

First that is not an early morning job, that is an average start time for many.

Secondly unless you live in the middle of nowhere, I can’t see why it would be unsafe to walk at that time of day. Your in a city so many people will be out heading to work/public transport etc anyway

If you didn't go out in the dark you'd be stuck inside nearly all the time at this time of year. Go for it :)

I start at 7am when working day shift. There will be plenty of people on their way to work

I leave the house between 7.15 -7.30
It's pretty busy at that time. I think if you stick to well lit streets and main routes you'll be fine and possibly surprised how many people are out and about at this time. It's not a particularly early start.

7.45 isn’t an early start. After 6 is totally fine to walk through most city’s, there will be other people on their way to work

For a lot of the year it will be light then. Even when it is dark there will be lots of people about at that time.

That is not an early start. Lots of people will be on the way to work by that time.

I used to walk my dog at 5:30am. Now that is an early start and I still used to see other dog walkers and some people walking to work and I am not even in a city.

Thanks! Yes it should be fine, DS leaves around then for the bus as well. Just a bit out of touch i think

In the city most people start getting to work at 6. When I go in for 7/7.30 my tube is way busier than when I go in for 8.30/9am. Yourll be okay
