<p>Do people bike or just take the bus? Is it a safe place to bike and how are the bike paths (i noticed on the map that they are not connected to each other)?</p>
<p>Some people bike (espescially within one campus to get around), though not so much when its freezing during the winter. You can get to Busch or Douglass/Cook from College Ave without much trouble. Getting to Livingston would require you to bike to Busch first and then travel to Livingston (sort of out of the way).</p>
<p>Most people just take the bus. I have to admit, as an incoming freshman, I was very shaky on the entire RU Bus system and transportation because I thought it would be a hassle to travel from one campus to another. I was, however, very mistaken. The bus system is very good and they even have a website to check when the next bus is coming.</p>
<p>Not too many people bike, but the paths are pretty good. Well-lit at night, and they got those emergency pole things along most of the way. Bikes are really useful within campuses, but u can even use em b/w campuses. I live on busch and bike to college ave/livingston w/o too many problems. Only real beefs i got are that the path sometimes crosses a main road and u gotta get off or watch for traffic. Also havent biked to douglass, only because ive never had class there.</p>
<p>It is plenty safe around campus. I run all the time and it is easy to get from campus to campus. I would take the bus to go to classes. Buses are not as bad as people make them out to be.</p>
