Made possible in part by generous support from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Orange County’s Measure M2 (OC Go) half-cent sales tax, the Senior Mobility Program promotes lifelong mobility through the provision of affordable, older adult-oriented transportation services.
The program, which subsidizes the cost of taxi travel for Laguna Woods residents who are at least 60 years of age, features general travel vouchers (taxi bucks), non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) and Irvine Station (Transportation Center) travel vouchers. All Senior Mobility Program transportation is provided by taxicabs operated by California Yellow Cab.
Travel Costs
Enrolled residents receive an ID card that reduces regular California Yellow Cab fares to the following co-pays, for all trips starting or ending in Laguna Woods:
- $0 to or from Laguna Woods City Hall/Public Library
- $0 to or from Irvine Station (access to Amtrak, Metrolink and OCTA buses)
- $5 for trips up to 10 miles within Orange County (each way)
- $10 for trips over 10 miles within Orange County (each way)
- $15 to or from VA Long Beach
- $25 to or from John Wayne Airport
