Walk or Bus? Nifty chart helps you figure it out

Filed under: Your commute options,busing,walking — Nancy Shore @ 8:42 am

Ever wonder if it makes more sense to walk to work or wait for the next bus?  A post on Lifehacker points to a possible solution.  Check out this chart to see if it makes more sense to wait for the bus or walk to your destination.

Since I walked to work today, I checked out the chart to see if it fit with my decision.  I live about 1.9 miles from work and am a fast walker.  Since the bus wasn’t going to come for about 30 mins (and because I like exercise) I walked to work today.  It takes me about 30 mins.  That’s slightly faster than a 20 min mile.  According to the chart, it makes sense that I decided to walk.

It’s an interesting tool.  Does it work for you?
