Central KY Community Action Transportation Service fleets in all counties continues to grow. CATS is the recipient of 10 new low floor mini vans purchased from American Bus. The vans were delivered on October 29, 2020.

The CATS program will also receive 12 additional low floor mini vans by late November. Plus, CATS is expected to replace a low floor mini van and Dodge Durango with specialized funding by this same time. These vehicles are imperative to updating the fleet and providing transportation services that improve the quality of life for members of our communities.

The Corona virus has continued to affect our transportation services negatively, however; while we are not operating at 100% currently, we have maintained a steady 60% trip count for the last two months. This is an increase from the 25% trip count in March 2020. If you would like a ride, please know that our drivers continue to sanitize the buses before and after each trip. In addition, all PPE equipment is being used during every trip to ensure the safety of our drivers and clients. To schedule a ride with CATS, please call 1-800-242-8225.
