Driving:

DON'T, IF YOU CAN HELP IT! Parking is scarce and expensive. During the day, it's shoppers and downtown workers; nights and weekends, it's people attending performances at Trinity Rep or the Civic Center.

Call RIPTA (781-9400) for bus schedule and fare information. You will need to be able to tell them what time of day you will be traveling.
Walking straight up Westminster St. or Washington St. will bring you to Empire St.
You will need exact change for bus fares.
