Both residents and travelers to the San Francisco Bay Area have a new resource for finding out how to get to area parks and beaches all via public transit. The key to budget travel is to prepare in front. When it comes to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new locations we have never been before, the fact of cost and budgeting is generally in the back of our minds. Planning and consuming our travel budget carefully is a consideration for most families. Minimizing spending and charges, while still enjoying your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed achievement and fiscal obligation. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought behind protecting money while vacationing is simple: Even if your personal budget is highly small, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or departing the homestead! Also thinking about that while traveling, no matter whether on a funds or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel charge!. Transit and Trails - www.transitandtrails.org - launched this week and was developed by the Bay Area Open Space Council, which is a collaborative of more than 55 member organizations who are involved in protecting the parks, trails, and agricultural lands in the nine-county Bay Area.
The interactive site which has been printed in hard copy form since 1995 identifies hundreds of trailheads and campgrounds on a Google map and links directly to the Metropolitan Transportation Commissions 511 Transit Trip Planner.
According to Bettina Ring, Executive Director of the BAOSC, "Transit and Trails is the first-ever trip planner focused on parks and trails, and is interactive. It coordinates real-time scheduling for all local public transit--even ferries--with all of the Bay Area's campgrounds, key trailheads, and featured trips. It brings all the needed information to your fingertips so you can easily plan your outing."
Future features on the site will include community input, social networking and a carbon calculator. Readers can already read about 20 featured trips that people have already hiked via transit.
In the Bay Area next week? The official launch party for the website takes place from 4:30-7:30 p.m. Sept. 30 at the David Brower Center, 2150 Allston Way, Berkeley.
