bike<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSecond Alternative – Walking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Another alternative entirely that costs little to nothing is walking. It shows some similar problems that biking does, but doesn’t require another form of transportation to get a person from point A to point B. Make sure that the safety measures for walking alone are followed and they will decrease any concerns surrounding those issues from the get-go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If someone is physically capable, walking around the city of Boise is completely doable and is a gorgeous experience with all the greenery prevalent in many areas. There are some sketchy places and bringing a can of pepper spray or making sure not to walk after dark is the best form of protection against people who might choose to be malicious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only thing that would cost some money in this form of transportation would be some deodorant for when sweating because of the physical exertion and then some good shoes so that the walking doesn’t harm the body. While this is an option for people wanting to get healthier, it isn’t always an option for some, and that is okay. Not being able to walk a certain distance is never something to be sad or feel judged about. Adapting to someone’s needs is important. Especially personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most Cost-Efficient<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The most cost-efficient mode of transportation is always going to be one’s own two feet. There is not much required to power a human being through the steps of getting from one starting point to a destination that would not already be being consumed, and walking has some great health benefits. There are a few concerns associated with this method of transportation, such as weather, safety, distance, and physical ability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A lot of it will depend on where a person’s destination is and the weather is subject to change on a whim. Everyone knows that weathermen are unreliable because they just don’t know sometimes, and that means being prepared as a pedestrian for a variety of weather throughout the day. There are other things that will keep a pedestrian safe during a walk, but if all else fails and walking just isn’t a feasible means of transport for any number of reasons, there are other options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The other most cost-efficient manner of transportation would be the bus. In fact, it combines either walking or biking to eliminate time constraints and only requires usually a day pass for infrequent users or a justifiable price for a year pass for the bus system. Most buses will even come with a bike rack on the front of the bus, thereby enabling someone using this service to bike to a bus stop, ride the bus stop from one end of the town to the other, and then bike the rest of the way from there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is cheaper than Lyft or Uber but is in a rather public setting which can be a concern for some individuals. But this also provides some added safety for female commuters or younger people who might feel in danger of malicious intent. For those worried about the impact of sickness and the Covid-19 Pandemic, bringing hand sanitizer and wearing a mask in these settings will decrease the likelihood of passing on viruses. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
