What is LINC? Loveland has launched Loveland Intercity Connector (LINC). This service will replace Transfort’s current FLEX F1 alignment but will not be part of the FLEX network. The Loveland route will connect the Loveland North Transit Center at North Garfield Avenue (U.S. Highway 287) and 37th Street to the Transfort South Transit Center at South College Avenue (U.S. Highway 287) and Fairway Lane in Fort Collins, with stop locations remaining the same as the F1 today and minor time adjustments to southbound trips. The new route will operate under Loveland’s brand, policies, and fare structure, with fares set at $1.25 for a one-way trip, $0.60 for seniors and riders with disabilities, and free for CSU-affiliated riders with a RamCard or youth with a school ID.
