We Love Durham NC

Public Transportation

We’ve been thwarted by transportation issues lately. True, the bus gets the kids for school each day now, so there’s substantially less driving re: that.

But, try as I might, I can’t figure out a most-safe bicycle route to our favorite park. (Most safe meaning I feel comfortable towing the girl behind in the trailer.) I can get safely to three other parks, but not that one. (I can also get to the library, three grocery stores, the post office, and a major shopping center via bike, so my whine is a little muted.)
And we wanted to take the Greyhound to my mom’s house 70 miles away, but it will take 7 hours and cost 6 times as much as gas in the car.

I’m really trying not to replace our dying car.
In good transportation news, the gas supply in Durham is somewhat restored this week.
