Nevertheless, property owners are served by a few bus lines, and it is very easy to reach a nearby bus stop from most houses. Porters Lake is not very appropriate for cycling since riding is rendered strenuous by the often steep area, and there are very few bike lanes. It is also very impractical for people travelling on foot to get around in this part of the municipality because very few daily needs can be carried out without the use of a vehicle.
