Driving Tips
Traffic keeps to the left here. Renters must be 21 years of age
and have a valid driver's license. The speed limit is 35 mph
and 20 mph in residential areas.
There are only two real highways.
Melvin H. Evans High-
way
(Route 66) leads west from the airport to within one
mile of Frederiksted and east to mid-island.
Queen Mary
Highway
is better known as
Centerline Road
. Each of
these roads have 55 mph speed limits.
Scooter Rentals
Tommy's Scooter Rentals
has free delivery and pickup.
(340) 332-2118.
Bicycle Rentals
St. Croix Bike
, at 70 King Street, Christiansted, offers bike
tours as well as rentals.
(340) 772-2343.
Taxis
Cabs are plentiful and there is usually a line-up on
King Street, Christiansted and at the pier in
Frederiksted. They can be flagged in the street,
and are even permitted to pick up additional pas-
sengers going in the same direction (unless you object).
Rates are fixed by person and distance, and a rate sheet
should be posted in each cab. However, that is rarely the
case, so agree on the fare in advance.
Bus
VITRAN
air-conditioned buses make the
17-mile run between Christiansted and
Frederiksted along Centerline Road on a regu-
lar basis. Ask your hotel clerk for the stop nearest your hotel.
