Through the book " Britain for Learners of English ", I kind of interest with the Transport of Britain.
I can see that there are many options for transport in Britain.
You can choose to travel by bus, ferry, train, taxi, airplane or even drive on your own.

The British transport network is one of the most advanced in the world, boasting in a large number of paved roads, modern railways, airports and so on.

However,  it’s a highly populated country and the traffic in British might be a bit painful to you especially if you’re not used to waiting in queues.

Beside reading my course book, I also watch movies having background in British. Following this, I could see that British is vast and sprawling, plenty of it is also really walkable – and, thanks to its winding streets, historic buildings and verdant spaces, many of its walks are marvellous indeed.

Walking is the cheapest way to travel around some city of British. In fact, you can get to most of the attractions just by walking.

# data[].attributes.body
There are not mentioned in the book, but I have found that, in 2010, British rolled out a new public transport option – the bicycle! There are public cycle points all around the city, and with the increase in cycle lanes, these are becoming a popular way to take short trips.

Hiring a bicycle is relatively easy – it costs £1.65 for 24 hours access to the system, which includes 30 minutes of actual ride time. After your first 30 minutes, each additional 30-minute segment costs you £1.65.

I kind of interesting with the most used form of public transport in British - Bus.
There are so many bus routes in here, serving a huge area. You can basically get anywhere in British by bus.

Paying your British bus fare is easy. Simply touch your Oyster card or contactless payment card on the yellow card reader as you board the bus or show the driver your paper Travelcard. To avoid card clash, make sure to only touch one card on the yellow reader and keep your other cards separate.

Bus fares are also cheaper, at a fixed price of £1.65 (as of February 2023) for a single journey.

The British Underground, or “Tube” as its nicknamed, is the oldest underground metro network in the world since 1863. Today, the British Underground carries over a billion passengers a year, and across 270 stations.

Interestingly, less than 50% of the track is actually underground, despite the name.

The Underground operates in fare zones 1 – 6, which cover British in expanding concentric circles, with zone 1 in the centre and zone 6 at the outside. Generally, the more zones you cross on your journey, the more expensive it will be.

If you are interesting with London walk, here is the Article that give you "10 stunning London Walks for a tranquil weekend wander" for you to read about.

Despite the vagaries of the British weather, London is a wonderful place to stroll through, whether you've got a destination in mind or are just out for an aimless meander. So breath some fresh(ish) air into your lungs, and take in the beautiful scenery surrounding you on Secret London's favourite London walks.

Our first entry in this roundup of London walks follows the course of an old railway that once ran between Finsbury Park and Alexandra Palace for four and a half miles of tranquillity, and a chance to enjoy a green environment in the very heart of the city. London's longest local nature reserve is covered with over two hundred species of wild flower, and supports a remarkable range of other wildlife: including everything from butterflies and birds, to hedgehogs, foxes, and even the muntjac - a fairly elusive species of deer! More info here.

2. The Wandle Trail, South London

This 20km (14 mile) trail wandles around the River Wandle; from Croydon to the Thames at Wandsworth. Admire the flora and fauna along this typical chalk stream; the nature that contrasts but beautifully compliments some of south London's most industrialised landscapes. More info here.

3. The London LOOP, Outer London

Known as the M25 for pedestrians (plus the aesthetic, minus the stress), the London Outer Orbital Path is 150 miles long. It's split into 24 easy-to-digest sections, covering everywhere from Kingston to Cockfosters, and will take you across various parks, woods and historic sites. Bushy Park, home to Hampton Court Palace, is a particular highlight. More info here.

4. Green Chain Walk, South London

This London route is split into 11 sections; spanning fields, parks and woodlands from Thamesmead to Nunhead Cemetery. While really, really enthusiastic walkers can cover the whole 50-mile path if they please - enjoying sights such as the Art Deco glamour of Eltham Palace and the 18th century Gothic folly of Severndroog Castle along the way - the walk's easy-to-follow signposts enable you to explore as much or as little as you like. More info here.

5. The Line, East/South London

Walk The Line, London's first dedicated modern and contemporary art walk. This one's a bit of a cheat because, to do it from beginning to end, you do need to use public transport, but it does include a lovely stroll along London's waterways, starting in the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Along the way, you'll spot nine different artworks, including pieces by Damien Hirst and Anthony Gormley. More info here.

6. The Thames Path, basically everywhere

Enjoy walks on both the north and south banks of the Thames - from the lost floodplains of Richmond, to the Dickensian stretches of the eastern marshes. And you won't be short of sights, either: Tower Bridge, Hampton Court Palace, Albert Bridge, The Royal Docks, Battersea Park and Kew Gardens are just some of the showstoppers you will set your eyes on when walking along the Thames Path. (Of course, you could follow the entire route all the way out to the Cotswolds, but you'd have to be pretty mad to do that.) More info here.

7. The Jubilee Loop, Central London

The entire Jubilee Walkway is made up of five looped walks, but we recommend section five: The Jubilee Loop. This two mile route offers a final trip around Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square, Admiralty Arch, The Mall, St James's Park, Parliament Square, Westminster Abbey, and the Houses of Parliament. So, for a tour of classic London landmarks, this walk will certainly... keep you in the loop. More info here.

8. Victoria Park, East London

It's no wonder that this beautiful spot was once again crowned one of the nation's favourite parks back in 2019. London's oldest public park blooms with wildlife and beauty, and its retainment of the Green Flag and Green Heritage awards for the fifth year running makes this space all the more loveable. On your walks through Victoria Park you'll find The People's Park Tavern, one of Hackney's best pubs. It even boasts a gorgeous beer garden backing onto the park to make for the perfect post-walk pint!

9. Hampstead Heath, North London

Start and end at Parliament Hill as you take a six mile stroll around the heath that offers beautiful scenes, one of the most breathtaking views of the city skyline, and an optional visit to Kenwood House (which just so happens to be a filming location for Notting Hill, the 1999 film featuring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts). Choose the right route and you'll also pass Hampstead Pergola, London's most handsome hidden gem.

10. Regent's Canal, from Paddington to Limehouse

Our final entry onto this list of our favourite London walks is a real humdinger. You'll follow the course of a 200-year-old canal, which will take you on a diverse journey through the city, all the way from Paddington Basin to Limehouse Basin. Wander leisurely through Little Venice, taking in the adorable house boats; pass through Regent's Park, where the canal is overlooked by London Zoo's huge aviary; or check out the quirky craft stalls and street food in Camden Market. More info here.

There’s no really easy way to answer this question. If you’re getting around the majority of central British, the Underground will likely be the most convenient. It’s fast, regular, and doesn’t have to contend with traffic.

# data[].attributes.body
In page 163 of the book, it show you a lot information about taxis. British definitely has some iconic modes of transport, from the famous red bus through to the tube. But perhaps most famous of all is the black taxi - black cab.

Black taxis are certainly more expensive than any of the other forms of transport, but for the convenience of getting from one part of the city to another, they sometimes can’t be beaten.

To me, I was kind of excited to read about this part because it made me remember some old films from my childhood.

# data[].attributes.body
In summary, I really love to read more about Britain. When I come up with this subject, I feel fantastic because finally the chance to approach the culture of Britain has come to me.

Personally, the part of Transport really attract me cause I can know more about car, road, etc in Britain and can see the modern of Britain.

Thank you for reading this! Hope you enjoy!
