Access LYNX is the specialized paratransit mobility program administered by the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority (LYNX). Serving as the designated Community Transportation Coordinator (CTC) for Orange, Osceola, and Seminole counties under Florida Statutes Chapter 427, Access LYNX provides shared-ride, door-to-door transportation for older adults and individuals who cannot utilize standard fixed-route public buses.

The program operates an extensive fleet of modern, ADA-compliant minibuses and specialized passenger vans equipped with commercial hydraulic wheelchair lifts, low floor ramps, and secure four-point restraint hardware. Operators are fully trained in passenger assistance techniques, CPR/first aid, and wheelchair handling to deliver safe, dignified mobility to seniors traveling throughout Central Florida.

Seniors rely on Access LYNX for critical travel, including medical appointments at AdventHealth and Orlando Health medical centers, kidney dialysis treatments, physical therapy sessions, senior centers, and essential grocery shopping. In addition to ADA paratransit trips within three-quarters of a mile of fixed bus routes, the program administers the Florida Transportation Disadvantaged (TD) program, which provides subsidized rides for low-income seniors outside standard transit corridors.

Headquartered at the LYNX Central Station in downtown Orlando, the agency coordinates trip reservations seven days a week between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Applications for eligibility certification are reviewed promptly, with travel training offered to help seniors safely transition to fixed-route buses when appropriate.
