Plan your ride.

Explore Century Village buses, county transit, accessible transportation, and privately arranged rides. A little planning helps you choose a trip that fits your destination and needs.

Start close to home

Century Village bus service.

UCO publishes the West Palm Beach Village bus schedules. Its schedule page lists three internal routes and an external route, with 2026 schedules effective February 2. Use the official page to check the route, stops, days, and return trip for your journey.

Check the schedule for Century Village West Palm Beach. The other Century Village communities have different transportation systems. Confirm holiday changes, boarding credentials, guest rules, mobility-aid arrangements, and service interruptions with UCO or the operator.

County transit

Palm Tran buses and trip planning.

Palm Tran’s trip planner provides route maps, trip planning, and real-time bus information. Enter your actual starting point and destination, and review the walking portions and transfers before deciding the trip works for you.

Palm Tran publishes reduced-fare information, including senior eligibility. Check its current fares and accepted proof rather than assume your Century Village ID provides a transit discount.

Accessible transportation

Palm Tran Connection requires approval.

Palm Tran Connection is shared-ride paratransit for eligible county residents and visitors. Riders must apply and be approved before using it. Being a Century Village resident does not itself establish eligibility.

Palm Tran’s current information describes Connection ADA and Connection Plus, introduced January 18, 2026. The applicable service depends on the trip locations and program requirements. Ask Palm Tran which service applies to your situation.

For application information, Palm Tran lists 561-649-9838, option 7, or 1-877-870-9849. Ask about reservation rules, mobility equipment, companions or aides, pickup windows, fares, and assistance at each end of the trip.

Arrange enough time for a shared ride and the appointment. Confirm the return arrangements; a booked outbound trip does not remove the need to plan the trip home.

Privately arranged rides

Taxis, app-based services, and medical trips.

A taxi or app-based ride can be an option for a trip that does not fit a bus schedule. Confirm the estimated price, pickup location, and whether the vehicle can meet your needs. Do not assume a standard vehicle provides wheelchair transport or physical assistance.

For a medical appointment, ask your health plan or chosen transportation provider whether a non-emergency ride benefit or suitable service is available. Confirm the appointment destination, required advance booking, coverage or cost, and assistance level.

Use UCO’s current gate-access instructions for any driver entering the Village. Give your full building and unit address, and agree on a safe pickup point.

For an immediate emergency, call 911. A community bus, taxi, rideshare, or non-emergency transport booking is not emergency medical transportation.

Before leaving home

Plan both halves of the journey.

  1. Confirm where and when. Check the exact stop or pickup address, date, departure, and arrival requirements.
  2. Ask about access and assistance. Explain any walker, wheelchair, boarding, or companion needs to the operator.
  3. Bring the right items. Carry required credentials, payment, destination details, and a contact number.
  4. Arrange your return. Identify the last usable bus or confirm how the return ride is booked.
  5. Check for changes. Review current notices and keep a backup contact if the trip is delayed.

A well-planned ride leaves more room to enjoy the day.
