==Transportation== ===Airports=== * [[George T. Lewis Airport]] * [[Williston Municipal Airport]] * [[Ames Field]] === Public transit === Levy County Transit has public buses but doesn't have routes available online.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Rural Transit Agencies |url=https://www.fdot.gov/fdottransit/transitofficehome/rural-transit-agencies |access-date=December 6, 2023 |website=FDOT |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Welcome to Levy County, FL |url=https://www.levycounty.org/department/transportation_-_new_page/index.php |access-date=December 6, 2023 |website=www.levycounty.org}}</ref> ===Railroads=== Levy County has only one [[rail transport|railroad]] line running throughout the county, and only within eastern Levy along US 41. The line is a former [[Atlantic Coast Line Railroad]] line that is now used by the [[Florida Northern Railroad (current)|Florida Northern Railroad]] for freight to the [[Crystal River 3 Nuclear Power Plant]] in [[Red Level, Florida|Red Level]], [[Citrus County, Florida|Citrus County]]. Notable abandoned lines include a [[Seaboard Air Line Railroad]] line that is in proximity to the existing former ACL line, a [[Florida Railway and Navigation Company]] line running parallel to [[Florida State Road 24|State Road 24]], and a third in western and southern Levy County that spans from [[Fanning Springs, Florida|Fanning Springs]] towards the [[Dunnellon, Florida|Dunnellon]] area running along US 19-98 until it reaches Lebanon Junction, where it runs along CR 336. The segment of that line between Fanning Springs and [[Chiefland, Florida|Chiefland]] is part of the [[Nature Coast State Trail]]. ===Major roads=== {{See also|List of county roads in Levy County, Florida}} * {{Jct|state=FL|US|19|US|98|name2=[[SR 55 (FL)|SR 55]]}} is the main local road through western Levy County, running south to north. * {{Jct|state=FL|US|27|name2=[[SR 55 (FL)|SR 55]]}} runs northwest to southeast from [[Marion County, Florida|Marion County]] and joins US 41 in [[Williston, Florida|Williston]] on its way to [[High Springs, Florida|High Springs]]. * {{Jct|state=FL|US-Alt|27|dab=Williston|name1=[[SR 500 (FL)|SR 500]]}} is a bannered alternate of US 27 that runs northwest and southeast from US 27/US 41/SR 121 in [[Williston, Florida|Williston]] to US 19/US 98 in [[Chiefland, Florida|Chiefland]], which it joins on its way to [[Perry, Florida|Perry]]. * {{Jct|state=FL|US|41|name1=[[SR 45 (FL)|SR 45]]}} is the main local road through eastern Levy County, running south to north. Until the north end of the concurrency with SR 121 in Williston, the road is also shared by the DeSoto Trail. * {{Jct|state=FL|US|129|name1=[[SR 49 (FL)|SR 49]]}} is an auxiliary route of US 29 that runs northeast from [[Chiefland, Florida|Chiefland]], and then turns north in [[Trenton, Florida|Trenton]] on its way through [[Jasper, Florida|Jasper]] before heading north into [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]]. * {{Jct|state=FL|SR|24}} is an east to west highway through the central part of the county from Cedar Key into [[Alachua County, Florida|Alachua County]]. A county-suffixed alternate route can be found in Bronson. * {{Jct|state=FL|SR|121}} is a south to north road that runs southwest to northeast from Lebanon Junction through Williston, and then into Alachua County and beyond, as it takes a long journey through [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]] and [[South Carolina]] as a tri-state de facto auxiliary route from [[U.S. Route 21 in South Carolina|U.S. Route 21]] in [[Rock Hill, South Carolina]]. * {{Jct|state=FL|SR|320}} is an east–west route connecting [[Manatee Springs State Park]] with [[U.S. Route 19 in Florida|US 19]]/[[U.S. Route 98 in Florida|98]]/[[U.S. Route 27 Alternate (Florida)|Alternate US 27]] in Chiefland. A county extension of the road exists north of the eastern terminus with US 19/98/ALT 27 leading to CR 339 in Newton. * {{Jct|state=FL|SR|345|CR|345|county2=Levy}} is a combined county and state road spanning from Rosewood to Chiefland. * {{Jct|state=FL|CR|40|county1=Levy}} runs mostly east and west through southern Levy County. It spans from the [[Gulf of Mexico]] in [[Yankeetown, Florida|Yankeetown]] winding along the [[Withlacoochee River (Florida)|Withlacoochee River]], on the way to Dunnellon and [[Rainbow Lakes Estates, Florida|Rainbow Lakes Estates]] in [[Marion County, Florida|Marion County]], where it eventually becomes [[Florida State Road 40|State Road 40]]. The segment between the Gulf of Mexico and US 19-98 is officially named [[Follow That Dream]] Boulevard, after the 1962 [[Elvis Presley]] movie. * {{Jct|state=FL|CR|326|county1=Levy}} runs mostly east and west through southeastern Levy County as a bi-county extension of [[Florida State Road 326|State Road 326]]. It spans from a dead end at the [[Waccasassa River]] in [[Gulf Hammock, Florida|Gulf Hammock]] winding northeast through US 19-98 until it reaches CR 343 where it turns east. After running through [[Goethe State Forest]] it intersects CR 337 in Morris Junction, and then SR 121. By the time it reaches eastern Levy County it has a brief multiplex with southbound [[U.S. Route 41 in Florida|US 41]] where both serve as the southern terminus of CR 323, only for CR 326 to turn east again as it eventually crosses the Levy-[[Marion County, Florida|Marion County]] line, on the way to [[Ocala, Florida|Ocala]] and [[Silver Springs, Florida|Silver Springs]]. The segment between I-75 (Exit 358) and SR 40 becomes a state road. * {{Jct|state=FL|CR|336|county1=Levy}} is a bi-county road that runs mostly southeast and northwest through southwestern Levy County in two segments. It spans from CR 347 southwest of Chiefland, along various local streets, and even overlaps [[County Road 345 (Levy County, Florida)|CR 345]], then runs southeast toward SR 24 at [[Otter Creek, Florida|Otter Creek]]. From there it is hidden along local streets that merge with US 19–98, which completely overshadows it until the at-grade interchange with SR 121 in Lebanon Junction, where it is exposed again running through the southern segment of [[Goethe State Forest]], and later crosses the Levy-[[Marion County, Florida|Marion County]] line, where it overlaps CR 40 all the way to Dunnellon. * {{Jct|state=FL|CR|337|county1=Levy}} is a tri-county road that runs south and north through central Levy County, as well as southwestern [[Alachua County, Florida|Alachua]] and eastern [[Gilchrist County, Florida|Gilchrist]] counties. It spans from CR 336 in [[Goethe State Forest]] and runs primarily along the eastern outskirts of the forest occasionally entering some forest land. North of the forest area, it enters the city of Bronson, where it intersects US Alternate 27, SR 24 and CR 32. Further north of the city limits it crosses the Levy-[[Alachua County, Florida|Alachua County]] line.
