Author: For most people who visit New York, they originally arrive in the city by airplane. Well, that should be clarified by saying most people who visit the city because they plan to vacation in New York or are there for a business trip, arrive by plane. Kennedy and LaGuardia are the city’s main airports and are two of the busiest airports in the world. However a large number of people arrive in the city by automobile and even bus. And once you’re in New York, if you plan to do any inter borough traveling you will most likely do via bridge. And New York has some of the most famous bridges in the world. The Brooklyn Bridge, originally known as the New York Brooklyn Bridge was the longest suspension bridge of its kind when it was originally built.
And of course the most common form of mass transportation while you are in the city is, not what your first thought was probably going to be. It is actually one’s own feet, or walking that is the primary transportation mode for people in New York City. Even tourists get around to a large extent via their own feet and spend a lot of their time in the city walking. Even when combined with some of the other common forms of transportation, a large portion of the distances covered in the city are by foot.
And for those people who need to get off of there feet, there is an extensive subway system that is probably used by more people on a daily basis than any other in the country. It is most popular high speed transportation in the city. And for these purposes high speed means faster than what you can walk. Buses are another transportation in New York as are taxis. Residents frequently get around the city by bicycling or rollerblading. However you get yourself to New York or travel around while you’re there, you will most likely have an incredible time doing it.
