Trains, buses, and planes

How about a car, the best way to get to Taunton is by car. Train service may be forthcoming, but won't be here for a couple of years. There is bus service to and from Boston and Providence. However Providence is closer to Taunton. Route 44 is directly east of Providence and is quicker than 195 or 295. Route 44 is a bit more scenic than either of the two federal roads and places you directly in the center of Taunton. The Taunton Green can be a bit confusing, but as I have told friends, drive around a few times and get orientated then make your move! Public transportation is not a priority in the city, but all depends on the price of gas, which will influnce public transportation. Taunton has a small airport mostly for one engine planes. Taunton is the center of Bristol county and thereby has a natural closeness to other major cities such as, Providence RI, Fall Rive MA, New Bedford MA, Newport RI.
