Regional buses connect Midwest

Hoosier Ride, an Indiana bus service, connects more than 30 cities throughout the Midwest, including Bloomington, Muncie, Indianapolis and Evansville, along with Louisville, Ky. and Kalamazoo, Mich.

A result of the partnership between Miller Trailways, the Indiana Department of Transportation and Greyhound Lines Inc., the service has a few regional routes that are timed to connect with existing Greyhound service throughout the country, according to a press release sent by INDOT’s Will Wingfield.

The service provides transportation options to work, airports, schools and other public and private services, said Reginald Addy, Miller Trailways’ director of Business Development, in the press release.

“Intercity bus service is economical, fuel efficient and provides an important travel option for families, senior citizens, students who don’t drive, are without a personal vehicle, or just want to sit back and enjoy the ride,” Addy said.

The service is partially funded with INDOT’s $2 million Federal Rural Transit grant.
