Getting where you need to go doesn’t always have to mean driving a personal vehicle. Safe Mobility for Life, in partnership with the University of Florida, has created FindaRideFlorida.org to help you easily identify and explore transportation options in your area.
This FREE online directory provides a list of available transportation providers based on your location, trip type, and need. Learning about available options is essential to maintaining your independence and staying connected to your community—beyond the driver’s seat.
To get started, go to FindaRideFlorida.org. Ask yourself the following questions and follow the prompts:
- Where do I want to go? Input your start and end points and click on the “🚍 Find a ride” button to find all the transportation providers that can help get you there.
- What are my options? Scroll through the list of providers to find the ones that meet your needs. Print or save your results for future reference.
- How do I contact a service provider? Click the “More Info” button next to their listing and contact them with any questions you might have.
If you need further assistance, contact the Find a Ride Helpline at 352-273-9624 and leave a message. A team member will return your call. You can also order a FREE informational tip card from the Safe Mobility for Life Resource Center at fdot.info/resourcecenter.
Whether you’re planning ahead or simply exploring your options in The Villages, FindaRideFlorida.org is a great place to start!
