Central Illinois Public Transit continues to grow in central Illinois, and now is located in 7 counties, and brings a lot to the table. They offer many discounted rates, and allow people to use Medicaid to pay for their trips, but only if the rider is going to a doctor's appointment. Nathan Nichols, Mobility Manger at CIPT, said there are multiple payment options a rider can choose from if they ride more frequently than a few times a month.

Nichols also emphasized that CIPT is available to anyone of any age including kids, but only if they have parent permission.

To schedule a ride or for more information, call the Central Illinois Public Transit at 855-755-2478. Nichols appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show.
