Boston
Transport - Getting around Boston
Boston's transport consists of the
country's oldest subway system, buses, trolley buses, ferries
around the harbour and the commuter rail. For getting around the
Boston-Cambridge area the subway, or the 'T' as it is known, is the
best as it is easy to use, cheap, fast and safe. It serves most of
the city and on the whole visitors will have little use for the bus
network, which is cheaper but more confusing for newcomers. Both
operate from about 5am to 12.30am, but a 'Night Owl' bus service
has been introduced to provide transport along main bus routes and
parallel to subway lines on Friday and Saturday nights until
2.30am. Different types of transport require different tokens, but
various passes are available for unlimited travel on buses and the
'T'. Taxis are plentiful but expensive, although water taxis are a
novel way to explore the city. Licensed cabs are best found at
cabstands usually near hotels or can be reserved by phone; they are
metered and provide receipts. Boston is a motorist's nightmare and
there is no need to rent a car while in the city, unless planning
excursions. Rental agencies require drivers to be 21 years old with
additional surcharges for under-25s.
