Milan offers many different kinds of public transportation. You can choose between* among subway, buses, trams or trains.
Therefore, if you don’t have your own car, no problem! You can go everywhere by a public transport. It’s possible, but the real difference is cost and time.
The subway is the most popular transport of the city. It reaches a large number of destinations such as sightseeings, universities and also suburbs.
Right now there are four different lines, but they’re building a fifth line**. This line will connect Milan to Linate - Milan’s airport.
This kind of public transport is very fast and cheap and it certainly helps in many situations.
Subway isn’t the only means of transportation of course: if you don’t like using the underground, you can take a bus or tram. Both are cheaper than the subway and slowlier than it.
The biggest problem/issue that someone may face when using the bus is traffic. In Milan there’s always a lot of traffic!
Another means of public transport/transportation is the train. Trains cover a large area of the country and there are many train stations all over Lombardia. Trains are quite cheaper. They can be used to travel not only from a place to other within Italy but also in other countries. This is the best solution for people who live in suburbs.
This kind of transport is the slowest. Usually trains can be reach high speeds, but they have to stop at every station, so they need double/twice the time... This isn’t the only reason. The employees often go on strike, so during these “black days” one might wait over an hour.
--------------
* When you want to use the word "between" there have to be only two choices. If there are more, please use the word "among".
** this phrase is not wrong but it would be better if you re-write it using the passive voice: a fifth line is being built/constructed.
