Naperville conducts survey:

The city of Naperville is conducting a survey to collect feedback on its Guaranteed Ride Home Program for commuters. The program, implemented Jan. 1, is designed to offer commuters who use Pace buses to reach the city's Metra train stations more flexibility by guaranteeing a ride home should they return when feeder route buses aren't in service. Roughly 280 commuters already are registered for the service. Take the survey at www.naperville.il.us/guaranteedridehome.aspx.
