You should sample the public transport here. Old Mercedes vans with windows cut in the side and in apoor state of repair. Everyone crammed in together in 35c heat and you might end up in a ditch. You don't know how lucky you are!
I work in the middle of nowhere - just a large office block about 1km from the nearest other building. So, I have always presumed there was no public transport. Chatting to a colleague, I find there is bus from the end of my road right to the office (indeed it turns at the office). So must give it a try - only 30 mins for 8 miles so quite a reasonable time (same as my cycle). But having an option that does not rely on 2 wheels is good.

My public transport diary for the past fortnight.....
The bus failed to turn up last week when I needed it.
I discovered a few days later the timetable had been changed.
My timetable has a date on the front which advises users when it becomes current, but no date to tell when it will be superseded.
They've posted a new timetable at my local bus stop.
The timetable they put up at my bus stop is bigger than the frame they put it in resulting in vital bits of information being obscured.
Called in at my nearest bus station for a new x route timetable, there wasn't one on display.
I spoke with the desk clerk who found one and updated it manually for me.
Public transport, for those of us at the mercy of Stagecoach buses, certainly leaves a lot to be desired.
