Monday, March 23, 2020 - Amid the “Stay at Home” order set forth by Governor DeWine and signed by Dr. Amy Acton on Sunday, March 22, Community Action Transit System (CATS) will continue to operate their services. Essential travel means taking trips to hospitals, health care providers, pharmacies, grocery stores, jobs that are providing essential services and to obtain necessary supplies and services. We have suspended all socialization trips until further notice. However, no routes will be affected at this time.
Monday, March 16, 2020 - Community Action Transit System provides vital transportation services within Pike County and surrounding areas. With the concerns regarding the COVID-19 novel coronavirus, we understand that people may be feeling anxiety and have questions about the safety of public transit; we take this very seriously.
Our transit system has updated its vehicle cleaning procedures to include nightly disinfecting, focusing on high-touch areas in all of our buses as well as sanitation during downtime. We want to ensure clean surfaces each morning to assist our riders in having a safe journey to their destination. If any riders have concerns or observe a bus or vehicle that needs attention, we urge them to please alert a transit employee right away.
Providing a safe transit journey requires a partnership with our riders. We have placed posters from the CDC aboard all vehicles and at the transit facility to remind riders how they can keep themselves and others healthy.
Our top priorities are to continue service to the public and to keep our employees healthy and safe. Thank you for partnering with us to help prevent the spread of illness.
