We have the best public transportation system.In the cities we have buses and trams every 7 minutes, in smaller towns like where i live we have busses every 15 minutes. When l first moved here from Zurich l was like what no bus for 15 minutes? But l appreciate that the system work so well, delays very rare and with good reason otherwise the bus is there when it should be. The only down side? the price, for a one-way ticket for the bus or tram, it`s CHF 4.60 if you do not have the half price which is quite high. But all in all, works well, l do not even need a car, l know the bus will be on time and with bus-stops every 500-700 meters who need a car. How about your area? do you use public transport and are they safe, clean and on time is the bus station close enough to walk home easily? These are things that matter to me

I relied on public transport sometimes when I lived and worked in the city but here we are a long way from public transport. It's good that yours is reliable.

@miniam If you rely on public transport to get to work, you need it to turn up on time.
