But the joy of riding to the Delle Alpi on the city bus among the animales is not to be missed! Take the bus, Andy, you won't regret it until the trip back after the match. Sitting in stiffling traffic . . . not moving for at least an hour . . . the bus holds 80 passengers, but there are 140 on board, 110 of which are acting drunk (though they really are not). Take the bus, Andy.

Well, I suppose I can't walk.
Is that what you take Paul, the taxi?
Also, where is Turin's train station in relation to the Delle Alpi? I might be in Germany instead of England so the train might be a little more feasible.

Normally my cousin picks me up in the car, if not then i would get a taxi...
Though be warned if you choose to go by taxi, you will be lucky to find one outside the stadium, often have to walk a couple of miles
Trams quite a cool way to travel and easy
The main station is where you will end up if coming from another country or a major city.
As such you will be in the centre... thus miles from stadium
No messier than the buses. But this is what I think they were working on for the 2006 Olympics while I was there for last year's Coppa final:

Now that's what I'm talking about, much easier than taking a cab or bus. They certainly needed to do something about transportation because not everyone would be able to take a cab or bus for the Olympic events next year.
I assume they are going to have the opening ceremonies at the Delle Alpi, so they would build a station right next to the stadium. Would be a good move.
Metros are one of the best inventions ever made, especially in DC. Whenever you want to go to RFK stadium you would save yourself at least 30 minutes by taking the metro as opposed to driving on the Beltway right up to the stadium.

I know their new underground connects the train station with downtown, but I'm unclear on what was planned beyond that. As for the opening ceremonies, I believe they are holding them at a polishing of the old Filadefia stadium (being recrowned as the Torino Stadio Olimpico), if you can believe that:

I would hope they have the metro connect there at least, but then the delle Alpi is another story. No wonder why everyone wants to move away from there....
