>>
>> This internship will require me to travel around Cleveland in order to

>> Kaiti,
>>
>> First, let me congratulate you on completing your course work and
>> transferring into your internship. Secondly, welcome hopefully to
>> Cleveland.
>>
>> As you know there are two NFB Chapters in Cleveland and I know anyone in
>> the
>> two will be able to assist you with information that will aid you in a
>> successful stay.
>>
>> As for my transportation needs, I am an Uber, Para Transit, Private
>> driver,
>> relative and street bus rider.
>>
>> Uber and Lift are very prominent, rapid and user friendly. There pick-up
>> times are usually no more than 6 minutes in the surrounding areas of
>> Cleveland. I reside downtown and travel for work and activities in the
>> areas
>> that you stated.
>>
>> University Circle is a busy area, due to both large hospitals; Cleveland
>> Clinic and University Hospital. Also, Case Western Reserve College,
>> several
>> Museums, shopping and restaurants circle the University area. The
>> Cleveland
>> Sight Center, many Churches and living quarters are there as well. And,
>> Euclid Ohio is just up the street from University Circle.
>>
>> Because I am downtown, West Cleveland, Central Cleveland, North, South
>> and
>> East are very easy for me to travel to. Therefore, my options are
>> plentiful. I can call an Uber just about anywhere in the County and they
>> are available. We have several cab companies as well, Yellow, City, Ace
>> and
>> more. Since I am not sure of where you will reside. I cannot tell you
>> much
>> about how Para Transit will work. But, the service here is 24-7 per week
>> at
>> $2.50 each way. It travels from county-line to county-line; including
>> suburbs of Euclid, Parma, Bedford, Garfield, Beachwood, Cleveland
>> Heights,
>> Middleburg Heights and many more. The service accommodates many wide
>> spread
>> areas. I do not think you will have difficulty obtaining service.
>> However,
>> if there is no regular service that travels to an area, this is when you
>> will have a problem. Uber or Lift or even a cab will be your best
>> option.
>>
>> We also have a private driver in Cleveland, name Wayne. He is reliable
>> and
>> blind friendly. He is a member of the Cuyahoga Chapter. Wayne has
>> transported many NFB members from several Chapters throughout the state.
>>
>>
>> Finally we have a train service that runs around 15 minutes apart. It is
>> called the Rapid. The fee is the same as riding the local bus. However,
>> I
>> am not sure what the fee is for persons with Disabilities. It used to be
>> free.
>>
>> I hope this helps!

>> and neither it nor the phone interview were guaranteed, so I'm

>>
>> This internship will require me to travel around Cleveland in order to

>>
>> I am hoping someone from the area who uses the various transportation
