The [[Palm Coast Metro Transit Authority]] (PCMTA) is the metropolitan transit authority for the entirety of the Palm Coast metro region (there is overlap in Rosslyn with its city metro). It operates the bus, light rail, and metrorail systems within the county and is an arm of the Palm Coast Consortium of Metropolitan County Governments (PCCMCG). It has the largest transit fleet in the country and serves roughly 35 million residents. Due the sheer area of the metro region, each county is broken up into districts. Lynnhaven County is broken into four districts: Central, North, South, and Beach. 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 Lynnhaven County have bus access, while light rail and metro rail extends through the cities of Lynnhaven and Jupiter, with feeder buses to other communities. | |||
The PCCMCG also operates Lynnhaven Airport, which sits in a unincorporated section of the county between the city of Lynnhaven and the CDP of Lenice. Most regional airlines provide flights to various parts of the country, while major airlines (Azul being the exception) transfer passengers to Sierra International Airport for most of their flights. | |||
