Transportation
Driving is a great transportation option in Vaughan. Most properties for sale are a reasonably short car ride from the nearest highway, such as Highway 427, and coming across a place to park is quite easy. However, travelling by transit can be challenging in Vaughan due to the low service level. Nonetheless, house owners profit from the Rutherford Station and Maple Station on the Barrie Line. Residents benefit from over 50 bus lines, and most homes are near a bus stop. It is difficult for pedestrians to navigate Vaughan as many day-to-day needs are sometimes challenging to meet by walking. Vaughan is also not particularly appropriate for bicycling as riding is rendered strenuous by the often steep area, and this city has a somewhat poor cycling infrastructure. Nevertheless, cycling is more feasible in some pockets than others.
