Transportation in Indianapolis

Indianapolis keeps it simple: IndyGo buses form the backbone, with the Red Line BRT giving you a fast, cheap ride straight through downtown and up to Broad Ripple. Grab a MyKey card at any station or on the IndyGo app, tap once and you're set for both buses and the Red Line. Taxis and rideshares are the splurge option, handy late at night when the buses thin out. stand. From the airport, the IndyGo Route 8 bus is the bargain play, drops you downtown in about 30 minutes for a fraction of a taxi fare. If you're hauling luggage or landing after midnight, rideshare pickup is upstairs on the ticketing level (skip the downstairs chaos). Don't bother with the rental car if you're staying central. Parking downtown runs pricey and the Red Line hits most visitor hotspots.
