  • MCT CONSIDERS CHANGES to SENIOR FREE RIDE PROGRAM MCT Will Host Public Meetings June 7-8, 2011
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact: Jerry Kane Madison County Transit (618) 797-4600 MCT CONSIDERS CHANGES TO SENIOR FREE RIDE PROGRAM MCT will Host Public Meetings June 7-8, 2011 GRANITE CITY, ILL., MAY 16, 2011… Madison County Transit (MCT) is hosting three meetings to solicit public comment on proposed changes to the Senior Free Ride Program for its fixed-route service. If approved, MCT will conform to Illinois Public Act 96-1527 and only provide free rides on its fixed route for seniors who qualify based on age and income level. The change would take effect in August 2011. In January 2008, the Illinois General Assembly approved former Governor Blagojevich’s amended Mass Transit Bill, which provided free rides on transit for Illinois residents, age 65 and up. In February of this year, Governor Quinn signed legislation to reform the Senior Free Rides program, limiting the program to only those seniors who earn less than $27,610 for a one-person household, $36,635 for a two-person household and $45,657 for a three-person household. MCT Public meeting dates, times and locations to discuss the changes are listed below: Tuesday, June 7 (2:00 – 3:00 p.m.) MCT Granite City Station Wednesday, June 8, (2:00 – 3:00 p.m.) MCT Alton Station Wednesday, June 8, (6:00 – 7:00 p.m.) MCT Edwardsville Station Comments at the public meetings will be summarized and presented to the MCT Board of Trustees for consideration. Individuals who cannot attend the meetings but would like to comment, should e-mail [email protected] or send a letter to: Madison County Transit, Attn: Senior Free Ride Comments, One Transit Way, PO Box 7500, Granite City, IL 62040.

  • Madison County Metrolink Study Open Houses
    DECEMBER 2004 OPEN HOUSES Welcome to the fi rst round of public open houses for the Madison County MetroLink Feasibility Study. The purpose of this 10-month study is to explore the feasibility of extending light rail into Madison County. This means that a MetroLink route will not be selected at the end of the study. Instead, valu- able technical information and public input will be collected then reviewed by local offi cials. They will then determine whether light rail is a viable transit option that should be pursued for Madison County. If it is, detailed planning studies will need to be conducted in order to select a preferred specifi c route. East-West Gateway Council of Governments, our metropolitan area’s transportation planning agency, and its consultants are managing this feasibility study. Supporting the study team is a Policy Advisory Committee made up of 18 community leaders. Madison County Transit is funding the study. In preparing for tonight’s open house, the consulting team studied the county’s existing and future conditions including population density, employment density and households with no cars. In addition, we interviewed several area stakeholders and conducted focus groups to get a feel for the transportation, economic development and other issues facing the county. Then we used all of this information to develop the study’s goals, or in transit planning terms the study’s “Purpose and Need” statement, and to develop potential MetroLink routes for Madison County. Tonight we present the information we have gathered thus far to get your feedback. We need to know your thoughts on our “Purpose and Need” statement.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AmandFora mSchomakerore informa tion, contact: Madison County Transit (618) 797-4600 MCT ANNOUNCES TRAIL BEAUTIFICATION PROJECT Phased Beautification Plan Begins This Week GRANITE CITY, IL., November 3, 2020… In an effort to enhance the natural beauty of the already scenic Madison County Transit (MCT) Trails, MCT is commencing a multi-phase beautification project this week at several locations along the trails. Local landscaping firm, Focal Pointe Outdoor Solutions, the low bidder for Phase 1 and 2 of the MCT Trails Beautification project, will begin work on MCT’s plan to add landscaping and trees to four highly visible areas on the MCT Trails. Earlier this year, members of the MCT Board of Trustees called upon staff to develop an MCT Trails beautification plan. Once the plan was approved, MCT bid out the project to several area firms. “The 130 miles of MCT Trails provide a tremendous amenity for Madison County residents and have become a magnet for visitors and new home buyers,” said MCT Board Chairman Ron Jedda. “They’re already beautiful, but through this effort we are enhancing some of the more visible and well-traveled areas of the trails.” Phase 1 of the beautification project, which is scheduled to be completed before the end of the year, includes plantings in the following four locations: • Location 1: MCT Schoolhouse Trail in Collinsville Deciduous trees including October Glory, Red Sunset Maple, and American Hornbeam will be planted on the north side of the MCT Schoolhouse Trail in Collinsville, parallel to Horseshoe Lake Road between IL-157 and I-255.

  • SCHOOL IS in SESSION on the MCT TRAILS MCT Launches School-Themed Scavenger Hunt on the Trails
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact: Amanda Schomaker Madison County Transit (618) 797-4600 SCHOOL IS IN SESSION ON THE MCT TRAILS MCT Launches School-Themed Scavenger Hunt on the Trails GRANITE CITY, IL., September 10, 2020… Following the success of two previous scavenger hunts, and in response to an unusual COVID-19 altered school year, Madison County Transit (MCT) is launching a back-to- school scavenger hunt to be utilized on its more than 135 miles of MCT Trails. The “School’s in Session” scavenger hunt will occur mid-September through the month of October and will focus on encouraging trailgoers of all ages to venture out on the trails, while putting their knowledge to the test. Those who participated in the previous scavenger hunts may recognize some fan-favorite missions but can expect several new missions as well. Missions include creative challenges and questions that are text-based, GPS-based, or photo-based. To ensure that there are missions for everyone to enjoy, MCT created two versions of the hunt: an elementary level game for younger students and families, and an advanced level game for seasoned students and trailgoers ages 13 and up. Once again, the scavenger hunt will be facilitated through the free, interactive app “GooseChase.” Participants simply download the app and search for the game they wish to join. In this case, either “MCT Trails School’s in Session: Elementary Game” or “MCT Trails School’s in Session: Advanced Game.” One can also search by game code: “R7P8GM” for the elementary game, or “PEJPJK” for the advanced game.

  • Madison County, Illinois
    EXECUTIVE SUMMARY STUDY BACKGROUND The original MetroLink light rail system, opened in 1993, extended from Lambert Airport to East St. Louis, Illinois. Prior to that time, the East-West Gateway Council of Governments (EWGCOG) completed the St. Louis Systems Analysis for Major Transit Capital Investments. That document has since served as the blueprint for light rail planning in the region. Nine transportation corridors were identified in the Systems Analysis as potential locations for additional light rail transit (LRT). Included were two corridors into Madison County, Illinois. Potential corridors for light rail expansion were also included in the 1999 Madison County Long Range Transportation Plan. Figure ES-1 shows the MetroLink corridors and study areas throughout the St. Louis area. The original MetroLink line and the St. Clair extension were funded through the “New Starts” program under the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). Local revenue (from the one-quarter cent transit sales tax approved in 1994) is the funding mechanism for the Cross County MetroLink line now under construction in St. Louis City and County. Federal funds will likely be required for a Madison County extension. STUDY PURPOSE To examine the opportunities for extending light rail into Madison County, EWGCOG entered into an agreement with Madison County Transit (MCT) to conduct this study. The primary goal of the study was to establish the general feasibility of implementing light rail in Madison County. Although the evaluation involved a variety of factors, the major issues were cost, ridership and financial funding capacity. See Figure ES-2 for an outline of the Study Area. The technical planning work of this feasibility study was integrated with a community engagement program to both inform and involve the public.
