On the other hand, Rolston is not very suited for biking as there are few bike lanes, and bicycling is made arduous by the typically hilly terrain. Cars are an excellent means of transportation in Rolston. Most houses for sale are a short car ride from the nearest highway, such as Lincoln M Alexander Parkway, and it is easy to park. In contrast, this neighbourhood is not particularly transit friendly. Thankfully, residents benefit from a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far-removed from most homes.
