Lex-Connect is a subsidized taxi voucher program available to Lexington residents who are age 60 and up (or have qualified for a ride from a Lexington Social Worker). The service is a safety-net service meant to fill gaps in transportation when other options (i.e. MBTA, Lexpress, The RIDE/RIDEflex, FISH, etc.) may not be suitable. Participants must be able to get in and out of a taxi unassisted.
