On the other hand, the public transit service in this neighbourhood is not particularly frequent. Nevertheless, house owners benefit from a few bus lines, and the closest bus stop is generally very close.

Markers Acres is also not particularly conducive to those who travel by foot as very few common errands can be run without the use of a vehicle.

Daycares and primary schools are especially easy to access on foot from most houses for sale in this neighbourhood. However, this area does not contain any high schools.
