We show that there exists a locally compact separable metrizable space $L$ such that $C_{0}(L)$, the Banach space of all continuous complex-valued functions vanishing at infinity with the supremum norm, is almost transitive. Due to a result of Greim and Rajagopalan [3], this implies the existence of a locally compact Hausdorff space $\tilde L$ such that $C_{0}(\tilde L)$ is transitive, disproving a conjecture of Wood [9]. We totally owe our construction to a topological characterization due to Sánches [8].
