Transportation Information and Resources

The lack of affordable and accessible public transportation effects the lives of every Florida citizen who does not drive due to disability, age or financial means.  The Florida Council of the Blind continues its dedication to and hard work on this most crucial initiative that impacts every aspect of life for its members and friends.  Foundational work on transportation is built in local communities where we live and work.  This foundational work prepares the way for State and National efforts.

The following links will take you to pages which contain information and resources about accessible public transportation.
