Daily trend of traffic jam in Kuwait

My understanding is that most of the traffic heads north in the morning and south in the afternoon. However if you are heading to any of the popular schools in the morning, *everyone* is going there so there is no way to avoid it. It is not that bad compared to other metropolitan cities out there.

china had a traffic jam that lasted for days, fyi :S

Thanks very much for your advises.

I heard that English school in Fahaheel and Cambridge school located in Mangaf are
less  in their reputation and parents' preferences than English schools near Salwa or Salmiya. Could you give me more advises on that?

And, therefore, we are going to rent a house near salwa and I will commute to mangaf everyday. According to google map, it takes around 30~40 min. to get there
in the morning. Is there any unpredicted problems?

that is correct; if you want english schools, your best bet is the following:

1) The English School (Salmiya)
2) New English School (Jabriya)
3) Kuwait English School (Salwa)

top 3. TES only goes up to year 8 tho, however the majority are British expats.

there is a sticky on the forum regarding schools in Kuwait, have a gander at it.

No, there are just very predictable daily accidents.
