Check whether the service terminates here or just passes

Muzaffargarh is on the road to Dera Ghazi Khan and Rajanpur, so a good share of what stops here is heading further south-west. That is usually an advantage, since it means frequency. The thing to confirm is where the bus sets down: services terminating in Muzaffargarh come into the stand, while some through coaches stop on the bypass to protect their running time.
