Getting Around

10 minutes to the south is the closest transit train station (Redline). This stop is about a 10 minute ride from downtown and a 25 minute ride from the airport. It also goes all the way east to University Circle and Little Italy (about a 30 minute ride). I advise buying digital tickets on your smartphone using GCRTA's mobile app; search "RTA CLE" on iphone or android platforms.
