Jet Setting July
This month, we explore multiple means of travel and our rights when out in our communities. From walking with canes and dogs to traveling in automobiles, planes, trains, buses, and more, please join us as we get ready to jet-set this July.
Use our up-to-date Bridges Resource Library to check out the public transportation services offered throughout the state of Maryland.
Breaking Out Without Breaking the Bank
Many of us use ride-share services, like Lyft and Uber, but we do well to remember a much older ride-share option: Public transportation. While most public transportation does not offer the door-to-door convenience of services like Lyft and Uber, they also cost a lot less than those services.
Another bonus: reducing our carbon footprints. Public transportation allows for more efficient per-person travel, so both the cost and the amount of fuel used to get from here to there are greatly reduced.
