AI Summary
This bill proposes an amendment to the Downstate Public Transportation Act to allow participants to use grant funds to establish call-for-ride services in rural areas. A call-for-ride service typically refers to a flexible public transportation option where riders can request transportation by phone or digital platform, rather than using fixed-route bus or train schedules. By adding this provision, the bill aims to improve transportation accessibility for residents in rural regions of Illinois who may have limited traditional public transit options. The legislation would provide local transportation authorities with more flexibility in using state grants to create on-demand transportation services that can better meet the specific mobility needs of rural communities.
