Getting Around Barranquilla
Getting around
Barranquilla has an extensive public transportation network ($0.60-0.80, slightly higher on Sunday and holidays). To go from the Centro to El Prado: catch a Uninorte Carrera 54 buseta to the bus terminal, then go to Calle 45/Calle Murrillo for a Simón Bolívar or Tranalianco transport to Trupillo / Terminal de Transporte. Taxis are unmetered, so agree upon a rate before boarding. Around-town fares should run $2.10-2.65, from the bus station to town $4.75. Presently the Transmetro is under construction, a mass transit system similar to Bogotá’s Transmilenio.
Often the curbs at the corners are calf- to knee-high, which makes walking through the city quite a workout. Many streets in Barranquilla are one way. If you are arriving with your own vehicle, be aware that there are non-circulation days based on license plate numbers.
