Transport
Cleveland's public transport system is currently being improved
with the implementation of the Euclid Corridor Transportation
Project that includes seven miles (11km) of bus lanes on arterial
streets. This should be operational by the end of 2008. Electric
trolley buses serve downtown and buses run to the suburbs. Most
sights can be reached on foot or light rail. A car is not necessary
downtown, but is more convenient for wider exploration of the city.
To hire a car, drivers must be 21 years old (some require a 25-year
minimum), and must have a valid driver's license and sometimes an
international driving permit as well. A passport is required for
non-US residents. Taxis are expensive and usually take a while once
summoned.
