Transportation
Property owners in this part of Vancouver have various choices to travel without the need for a car. Physically active house buyers will value the very pedestrian-friendly nature of Yaletown; most day-to-day needs can be carried out by walking, and there are also countless businesses in proximity. The bicycle is a good method of transportation in this neighbourhood since the cycling infrastructure is especially comprehensive. Owing to 2 rapid transit stations (Yaletown-Roundhouse Station Platform 2 and Yaletown-Roundhouse Station Platform 1) on the Canada Line Skytrain, and a few nearby bus lines, property owners can rely on public transit to move around in this neighbourhood. On the other hand, driving is a rather limited transportation option in Yaletown as very little of the street infrastructure is conducive to cars, and it is very difficult to come across a place to park.
