Characteristics

Transportation

This area is very car friendly. On the other hand, traveling by transit can be difficult in Norwich by reason of the infrequent service. Thankfully, residents benefit from a few bus lines, and it is especially convenient to reach a nearby bus stop from most homes. This area is not very cycling-friendly since there are a fair number of hills, and there are few bike lanes. There are also relatively few pedestrians out on the streets of Norwich, despite the fact that many daily errands can be run without a vehicle.
