Driving is an excellent transportation option in Cheney. On the other hand, this city is not an especially pleasant part of the Spokane metropolitan area for moving around by public transit. Nevertheless, there are a few bus lines, and the nearest bus stop is usually very close by. Cheney is not particularly conducive to pedestrians since very few daily needs can be met without a vehicle. This city is also not particularly bike-friendly because bike riders encounter a considerable amount of hills, and the cycling network is somewhat poor.
