Transportation Options
Uber or Lyft is a great option especially for going downtown Harrisburg or to Hershey park as parking may be limited.
However HBG does have public transport - CAT. You can find their schedule on line.
We also have a train station that goes to and comes from New Jersey, New York, Philadelphia, DC etc. we are 10mins from the station
Greyhound is also an option
CAT is the major public transportation we have in the area... their transfer center is downtown Harrisburg, as pictured, but they have many bus stops including one a block from the house.
