The ribbon-cutting will take place on Thursday at 11 a.m. at the
corporate headquarters of the Community Action Partnership of
Central Illinois, 1800 Fifth St. in Lincoln. Cake, coffee and
punch will be provided following the short ceremony.
Staff from LMPT will be on hand to discuss details of the program
and answer questions.
LMPT is a "demand response" transportation program that requires
passengers to call at least 24 hours in advance to schedule their
rides. At the time of the call, the dispatcher will schedule the
time, location and return trip if needed. The dispatcher also will
confirm any applicable fare for the ride.
The LMPT fare schedule is available at
www.capcil.org/transportation.htm, or

suggested donation.
LMPT operates Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. To
schedule a ride, residents need to call 1-866-930-8212 toll-free at
least 24 hours before they need a ride and make arrangements with
the dispatcher.
