Iroquois County Board reacts to Mass Transit Shut-Down

The Iroquois County Board has released a statement in regards to CRIS rural transportation ceasing operations. According to the statement, it will be at least 30 days until they can find a temporary solution. In the meantime, the board has put out a call to any social services, churches, organizations and citizens to help one another fill the void. If you or anyone you know is able to assist, you can contact Monte Andrews at 815-844-7741 to add your name to a list of those available to provide transportation. CRIS discontinued ride services in Iroquois, Ford, and Vermillion counties on January 2nd after the Illinois Department of Transportation froze critical funds for the organization to operate.
