Please share your answers in the comments.
1. No buses but a constant parade of trams, street cars.
ReplyDelete2. There will be next year.
3. Yes, although taxis are rarer since Uber and my preferred Didi appeared.
4. Yes, while there have always been a convenience store somewhere nearby, a proper supermarket opened a month or so ago.
5. Today, and it was not a good experience, though it normally is.
I expected you would be the first to respond.
Delete1. Yes.
ReplyDelete2. Technically no. Light rail only, but at one point it goes under some buildings.
3. I assume downtown there is of some kind
4. No. Allegedly in a year a new one will come where that would be possible.
5. Yesterday.
I would consider the light rail, the equivalent of a subway. We haven't ridden the Rapid in years.
Delete1: Is there local public bus service available where you live? Not really; buses for travel to Columbia but no bus service in Camden.
ReplyDelete2: Is there subway (underground) train service where you live? Oh gosh no.
3: Is there taxi service available where you live? Camden does have a taxi company; two cars I believe <<<<joke.
4: Can you walk to grocery shopping from where you live? It'd be a hike, but I could and I don't.

Delete1: Is there local public bus service available where you live? Yes. The RTA is THE public transportation service for the Dayton area.
ReplyDelete2: Is there subway (underground) train service where you live? No.
3: Is there taxi service available where you live? There is, it's a very small service - mainly from the airport. If a person wants to take a taxi, he or she must call to arrange the pick up. Uber and Lyft are easier than calling a taxi .

5: When was the last time you used public transportation? In early June, a bus in St. Louis.
