North Central Area Transit is adding an additional route to improve access. Beginning July 1, NCAT will be providing service between Streator<\/a> and the La Salle<\/a>\u2013Peru<\/a> area daily, which includes trips to Utica<\/a>, Oglesby<\/a>, Mendota<\/a> and Spring Valley<\/a>.
NCAT only provides service between Streator and the L-P area Tuesdays and Thursdays. Expanding to five days a week will help serve Illinois Valley Community College<\/a> students, individuals needing to see medical or dental specialists, and perhaps even open opportunities for employment.
\u201cWe\u2019re happy to help people get where they need or want to go,\u201d NCAT Transit Director Kim Zimmerman said, \u201cno matter where they are going.\u201d
Since NCAT will be running one bus between the two locations, it asks that riders be patient, as they may have to arrive earlier or be picked up later than requested.
\u201cWe try to be as convenient as possible,\u201d Zimmerman said, \u201cbut we can\u2019t be in two places at once. We are going to pick up as many people as we can going in the same direction around the same time. We appreciate our riders\u2019 flexibility and patience.\u201d
Call 833-433-6228 to schedule a ride. All rides must be scheduled by 10 a.m. two business days in advance. However, because of limited capacity, NCAT may not be able to accommodate all requests. NCAT provides transportation from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Office hours are from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
