Answer 3

I only live a few hours from Bangor so i am pritty familiar with it. It depends on where you are in Bangor..i would say 15-20 minutes (i think)

Answer 4

I'm a UMaine student! I can help you! =D

I'd definitely have to say it's about ten minutes from Bangor limits to town limits. I'd guess if you're going from the University of Maine into Bangor itself, about twenty minutes driving.

In some cases, it's also actually easier, but a bit longer, to travel  by the local bus, the BAT. It takes about half an hour on the bus (To get from the Union stop to downtown Bangor, by Pickering square) but if the weather's crappy or you just want to save gas, you can take that. UMaine students get to ride the bus for free so long as they show their MaineCard (Campus ID) to the bus driver. It's a great deal, especially for commuters and those who don't have a car (like myself, but I also live on campus).

If you decide to use the bus (Just for a quick bit of aside info here), the bus goes toward downtown Bangor between 30 and 35 past the hour, and arrives usually on the next hour or about five after the hour. It departs downtown 15 past the hour. (Saturdays have a very weird schedule which I won't get into here, but feel free to get in touch with me if you want more info on the local bus, I know the routes real well.)
