CityLink to offer free rides for annual Passenger Appreciation Day
PEORIA, Ill. (WMBD) — CityLink announced it will provide free rides for its 16th annual Passenger Appreciation Day on Thursday.
The free rides will be provided on CityLink fixed-route buses, CityLift paratransit vehicles, and CountyLink rural transportation vehicles, , a CityLink news release stated.
The free rides are to honor the former City Link General Manager Jerome Lilly, who died unexpectedly in 2007. The CityLink Transit Center in Downtown Peoria was dedicated to Lilly in 2009.
'We are pleased to continue our tradition of Jerome Lilly Passenger Appreciation Day on April 17,' CityLink General Interim Manager Kofi Kisseh said. 'We want to take this opportunity to thank our passengers for their dedicated support of the public transit services we provide.'
