[CONCERNED CITIZENS OF PARATRANSIT]

Hello All:

 

Those wishing to use their paratransit service in Florida must send a  copy
of their certification letter to Lynx transportation at the fax number of
407-849-6759 to the eligibility department.   Those who ride Chicagoland
paratransit should contact Clara Wells at RTA 312-913-3125  about getting
your letter.  The RTA will fax this letter for you if you request it.  The
fares range from $4  to $7  per trip.  According to Lynx, “trips where both
the origin and destination  are ¾ of a  mile of a  fixed route bus
alignment, fare would be $4.”  “If the origin and destination are both
outside of a  ¾ mile of a  fixed route bus alignment, it would be $7  per
one way trip.”  When you set a  trip, the reservationist will inform you of
the cost.  There are ticket books available online at the cost of $18 for a
$20 book and $45 for a  $50 book.  Books can be purchased  at
www.golynx.com\lynxstore <http://www.golynx.com/lynxstore> .  The tickets
are in increments of 50 cents and one dollar.  The phone number to Lynx
transportation is 407-423-8747.  

 

Good luck to everyone and happy traveling.
