For those relying on public transit, Tempe offers a range of options, including buses, light rail, and a streetcar system. Buses operate on major streets with several routes, while the light rail connects key areas across the city and beyond. The streetcar primarily serves the area around Arizona State University. Free circulator services, such as neighborhood shuttles, make it easier to navigate local areas. The city’s infrastructure supports these transit modes, but distances and the layout of some areas may require planning. Public transit is a practical choice for many destinations, especially in well-connected parts of the city.
