7.6 Transit Services<br />

The <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Oviedo</strong> is currently served by one transit route (Link 47) that provides<br />

access between UCF, the <strong>Oviedo</strong> Marketplace, the 419/426 corridor, and Seminole<br />

Community College. For various reasons, this route consistently ranks among the<br />

lowest performing routes in the entire Lynx transit system. The performance <strong>of</strong> the<br />

current route should not discourage the <strong>City</strong> from embracing transit as a means for<br />

providing improved mobility for citizens within the <strong>City</strong>. One <strong>of</strong> the major underlying<br />

reasons for the poor transit performance is due to the long headways, or time periods<br />

between buses along the route, the orientation <strong>of</strong> the route, and the low-density<br />

development pattern along much <strong>of</strong> the route despite the fact that it serves major<br />

destination such as the Seminole Community College, UCF, and the <strong>Oviedo</strong><br />

Marketplace.<br />

The plan recommends restructuring existing transit service into two routes between<br />

UCF to the Community College to the <strong>Oviedo</strong> Marketplace along the Lockwood<br />
