 | |  |  | Trolleys and Buses: Hart Line Buses and Teco Trolley Cars | |  |  | |  |
Tampa has a comprehensive HARTLINE bus system, though nothing like as frequent or fast as buses in England or Europe. There is NO train service to or from Tampa, or within the Hillsborough County, trains are for commercial use only, no public transport. Most areas of Tampa are covered by a bus service, though the routes often seem strange, and only few buses seem to run direct from outlying areas into the city centre - downtown. Most seem to run between the major shopping malls, or University areas, and to get into the downtown area may take several different buses and at least an hour. Many of the buses only run hourly anyhow, and finish early evening. The Marion Transit Centre is the terminus of all Downtown buses, and from there you can a shuttle bus into the downtown area, that meets the Teco Electric Trolley Car into YBOR City, or another shuttle bus to HYDE PARK area. You can take a bicycle on the bus (they have a rack for 2 bikes on the front of the bus) BUT you need a special (free) pass to do that, and watch a training video to see how to work the rack. A day pass on the Hart Line is about $3.25 (at April 2007) The Cycle Pass is only available on personal application at the Marion Transit Centre in downtown Tampa.
