IndyHub’s interested in mass transit for a lot of reasons, but you’re going to see us take a more vocal role because you told us it matters to you (surveys from 2013 and 2015). Here’s a little more on that if you’re interested.

1. Indiana Citizens Alliance for Transit (ICAT) – Started as series of public forums held throughout central Indiana in the spring of 2008, ICAT’s mission is to educate the public on the benefits of transit and to advocate for the immediate development and ongoing support of comprehensive transit options in communities across Indiana.
