CTA announces new fare card with I-GO

Officials have approved a new Chicago Transit Authority fare card that can also be used for a car rental service.

Anyone who registers for the card can use CTA's trains and buses will be eligible for an I-GO membership.

Officials approved the deal Friday.

I-GO is a Chicago-based nonprofit organization that touts economically and environmentally sound transportation. Their fuel-efficient cars are available on short-term rentals.

About ten CTA stations have I-GO rental facilities.

The joint CTA and I-GO card will be available by the end of the year.
