Getting around
Cars are an excellent transportation option in Silverado. It is a reasonably short drive to the nearest highway from any home in Silverado, and accessing a parking spot is generally easy. In contrast, the transit system in this part of Calgary is fairly poor. Nevertheless, residents are served by Somerset - Bridlewood Station on the Red Line - Somerset - Bridlewood/Tuscany CTrain. The neighbourhood is linked by approximately 20 bus lines, and most houses are very close to a bus stop. It is difficult for pedestrians to navigate this area because carrying out daily needs is inconvenient without a car. Silverado is also not particularly conducive to biking since there are a good number of slopes to challenge cyclists. Nevertheless, the bicycling network is reasonably comprehensive.
