Getting Around the City
The best way to get around New York City is to walk. For longer trips, the City has an extensive public transportation network of subway trains and buses that operates 24/7. Bus stops are located roughly every two or three blocks; subway stations are about 10 blocks apart.
Riders have the choice of buying a *Single Ride Ticket* (*$2.75 per ride; must be used within two hours and no transfers included*) or a *MetroCard* (*base fare of $2.50 per ride, plus a $1 fee for the purchase of a new card*).
*An unlimited MetroCard allows users to ride as often as they like within a fixed time period: seven days ($30) or 30 days ($112). *
With a MetroCard, transfers between subway trains are free, as long as the passenger doesn't exit the system. One free transfer is permitted between a bus and a subway or between buses within a two-hour period.
Discounts are available for seniors (ages 65 and older) and students. Quarters, dimes or nickels can be used to pay bus fares.
*Customized route itineraries are available from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's online Trip Planner (tartripplanner.mta.info)
