Getting around

Morgantown is a relatively small town, so getting around should not be much of a problem. Car is the most popular mean of transportation in Morgantown. However, in 2018, MoGoShuttle, a free public transportation system, began service within city limits, expanding to include bicycle rentals in 2019.
