Link 125 connects Edgewater with the wider bus network

LYNX’s published Link 125 Silver Star Road route follows Edgewater Drive through College Park, with service to LYNX Central Station, AdventHealth Orlando and westward destinations including Pine Hills Transfer Center and West Oaks Mall.

The operator’s timetable lists Monday–Sunday and holiday service. SunRail is a separate connection at AdventHealth Orlando, rather than a train running along Edgewater itself.

Street improvements remain planned

The Edgewater Drive Complete Street project extends from Lakeview Street to Par Street. The city plans wider sidewalks and streetscape changes, with a roundabout at Lakeview.

The timeline checked October 19, 2026 anticipates construction of the roundabout segment beginning in early 2027 and substantial completion in winter 2027. These are future changes to the corridor, not improvements already available along every block.

The Clouser Avenue house pictured here

The photograph shows the former Kerouac residence at 1418 Clouser Avenue in November 2019. Its clapboard walls, front porch and mature trees provide a dated view of residential architecture in College Park.

The district’s history records Jack Kerouac living here in 1957–1958, when On the Road was published and he wrote The Dharma Bums.
