Airports:

Indianapolis International Airport serves Indianapolis and the surrounding areas.

Roadways:

Six Major Interstates serve the Indianapolis area including I-70, I-74, I-65, I-69, I-465 Beltway, and I-865 Connector.

Transit:

Indianapolis's transit provider is the Indianapolis Public Transportation Corporation, also known as IndyGo. The Indianapolis Public Transportation Corporation was established in 1975 after the city of Indianapolis took over the city's transit system. Before 1997, IndyGo was called Metro.

Taxis do not roam the streets of Indianapolis as they do in most comparable cities, thus rendering the hailing of cabs impossible in the city. However, you can find a full list of Indianapolis Taxi’s here.

In 1953, the last streetcars ran in Indianapolis. Trolleybuses made their last run in the city four years later in 1957. After 1957 (and continues today), Indianapolis has an all-bus transit system.

Central Indiana Commuter Services (CICS) funded by IndyGo to reduce pollution serves Indianapolis and surrounding counties.

People Mover:

The Clarian People mover connects the Indiana University School of Medicine and adjacent hospitals with Methodist Hospital and is available for public use. Other buildings under the Clarian Health Partners / IUSM umbrella are currently being built along the route (6/2006). Plans are possible for a more expansive People mover transportation system throughout downtown. The People mover is sometimes inaccurately described as a monorail, but in fact rides on dual concrete beams with the guideway being as wide as the vehicle.
