See also: List of Highways in HobartThe car is the dominant mode of transport for Hobart residents. The three major highways servicing the greater Hobart area are the Souther Outlet, the Tasman and the Brooker Highway. These highways connect at the city centre, and other smaller highways connect to these as they travel out of the city.
Public transport is provided by Metro Tasmania bus services.
Taxis and limousines operate with no ties to Metro. Taxi Combined holds the largest fleet of taxicabs in Hobart. Yellow Cabs service the city to a lesser degree. Wrest Point Hotel Casino Limousines provide luxury transport in Hobart.

Famous quotes containing the word road:
“Emancipation should make it possible for woman to be human in the truest sense. Everything within her that craves assertion and activity should reach its fullest expression; all artificial barriers should be broken, and the road towards greater freedom cleared of every trace of centuries of submission and slavery.”
—Emma Goldman (18691940)
“Here is no water but only rock
Rock and no water and the sandy road
The road winding above among the mountains
Which are mountains of rock without water
If there were water we should stop and drink
Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“[T]he temple through which alone lies the road to that of Liberty.”
—James Madison (17511836)
