The [[Palm Coast Metropolitan Transit Authority]] (PCMTA) is the metropolitan transit authority for the entirety of the Palm Coast metro region (there is an overlap in [[Rosslyn]] with its [[Rosslyn#Transportation|city metro]]). It operates the bus, light rail, and commuter rail systems within the county and is an arm of the [[Palm Coast metropolitan area|Palm Coast Consortium of Metropolitan County Governments]] (PCCMCG). It has the largest transit fleet in the country and serves roughly 35 million residents. Due to the sheer area of the metro region, each county is broken up into districts. Andina County is broken into four districts: Central, East, North, and South. These districts have their own representatives that plan the area and work with residents to develop the best transit plans for them. All cities and communities within Andina County have bus access, while light rail and metro rail extends through all cities except Bloomfield, Umbria, and Valdez, though these communites are connected with feeder buses to light rail. | |||
The PCCMCG also operates [[Gadsden-Samori-Andina International Airport]], which sits in an unincorporated section of the county between the cities of Palacios and Sacristan. Most airlines provide flights to various parts of the country, while major airlines usually prefer to transfer passengers to Sierra International Airport for most of their transoceanic flights. | |||
Andina County is served by the Palm Coast Beltway which links it with other Palm Coast counties by road, while [[Verona State Highway Beltway 40|Beltway 40]] connects most of the cities in the county core. Verona State Highway 95–Allure Parkway is a tolled eight-lane highway connecting Buenaventura to Rosslyn, although those traveling with three or more passengers may use the highway free of charge. The county is also crossed twenty-one other highways providing ample choice for travellers to navigate the area. Beltway 40 is notoriously one of the most congested highways in the state, and thus, the [[Verona Department of Transportation]] (VDOT) is currently expanding the highway to ten lanes. | |||
