Wellington is bringing back its highly successful Senior Transportation Voucher Program for a second year, which provides discounted taxi service within Wellington.

Seniors with vouchers will pay $4 for a one-way trip and $8 round-trip for door-to-door service within Wellington, along U.S. 441 between Southern Boulevard and Lake Worth Road and to Palms West Hospital and surrounding offices.

To qualify, seniors must call Howard Trager, Wellington’s senior services advocate, at 791-4785.

Vouchers can be requested up to one month in advance and are distributed monthly. Monthly quantities are limited so seniors are encouraged to call early.

The vouchers are accepted by Wellington Cab/Wellington Town Car. To schedule a ride, call (561) 333-0181.
