LYMMO Bus System Goes the Extra Mile
Last updated on April 17, 2023
The expanded Lime Line route is a convenient transit option for the city's seniors to hop on and off to navigate and explore the downtown area quickly and reliably. This LYMMO expansion aligns with the city's Livable Orlando Age-Friendly Action Plan and its commitment to ensure Orlando is a "Community for a Lifetime" by implementing age-friendly initiatives, creating happier and healthier residents of all ages.
For those interested in riding, the Lime Line will now run from the North Quarter to LYNX Central Station then southward to the Beardall Senior Center and Lake Lucerne neighborhood with stops at Division Avenue, Anderson Street, Delaney Avenue, Gore Street, Orange Avenue, South Street, and Garland Avenue. To further enhance mobility throughout downtown, frequency will also increase on the Grapefruit Line with buses arriving every eight minutes during the weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. and every 15 minutes early mornings, nights, and weekends.
The fare-free, circulating LYMMO buses were among the first of its kind in the U.S. to have their own dedicated lanes, known as bus rapid transit (BRT). The BRT system is funded by the City of Orlando's Community Redevelopment Agency and has been instrumental in creating an efficient public transport network with its three routes (Lime, Orange, and Grapefruit) that connect two downtown SunRail stations, the LYNX Central Station, and several neighborhoods around the urban core.
