Getting Around Windsor

# Transportation in Windsor Windsor offers several practical transport options for getting around this border city. The Transit Windsor bus system serves as the primary public transportation network, connecting major areas throughout the city with regular service. For visitors, taxis and ride-sharing services like Uber provide convenient door-to-door options, particularly useful for reaching specific destinations or traveling outside bus service hours. First-time visitors should note that Windsor's layout is relatively straightforward, with most attractions accessible by public transit or a short taxi ride. The city's proximity to Detroit means some visitors may arrive via Detroit Metropolitan Airport across the border - in this case, you'll need to arrange ground transportation that can handle the international border crossing. Check current shuttle services or taxi options that are authorized for cross-border travel, as standard local services may not provide this route. **Getting from the airport:** If arriving at Windsor International Airport (YQG), located about 10-12 km from downtown, taxis and ride-sharing services are your primary options for reaching the city center. For current rates and availability, use the booking options available through local transportation providers.
