Public transportation

Several public transportation routes go through or along the Skanste neighborhood making for easy access to any location. Trams No. 5 and 9 run along Ganību dambis; trolley-bus No. 3 goes from Sarkandaugava to the center and the stops for buses No. 2, 11, 24 and 49 are nearby. According to surveys, the majority of the residents of Skanste can reach their nearest public transportation stop in less than five minutes.
