Getting around
Cycling is easy in Vanier. Vanier is also a fairly pleasant part of Oshawa for pedestrians; running daily errands is easy without a vehicle, and plenty of businesses are moderately close at hand. The public transit service in Vanier is somewhat poor. Thankfully, homeowners can rely on the Durham College Oshawa with access to the Lakeshore East. Property owners benefit from about 10 bus lines, and most homes are very close to a bus stop. In contrast, the best transportation option in Vanier is very often driving. It is convenient to park, and it is a short car ride to the closest highway, such as Highway 401, from anywhere in this part of Oshawa.
