How to apply for Transportation Lincoln County (TLC)

Transportation Lincoln County (TLC) / Lincoln County Senior Services

Who it's for

Transportation Lincoln County (TLC) is the public, demand-response transportation service for Lincoln County (Lincolnton). It provides curb-to-curb rides for medical appointments, shopping, senior centers, and essential errands, with wheelchair-accessible vehicles available Monday through Friday. Senior Services transportation is available to residents 60 years of age and older, and to riders with disabilities under 60. Rides are scheduled in advance; call TLC dispatch at 704-479-0020, or the Senior Services transportation coordinator at 704-736-8492, to arrange a trip.

This is a demand-response community transportation service reserved in advance; trip availability and any senior/disability fare reduction depend on capacity and grant funding, so this shows as a may-qualify result.

What you'll need

  • Proof of Lincoln County residency
  • Advance ride reservation (typically at least one business day ahead)
