Get around

There is a local bus service which travels throughout the suburbs and the city of Chicago known as the Pace System . Your best bet to understanding Pace is talking to someone who is familiar with it, as it is considered by most to be confusing and overpriced. The best mode of transportation is by car. Taxi services are available by phone call.
