The Blue Line is a great alternative to the Kennedy, with Park and Ride lots at Cumberland and Rosemont offering ample parking capacity. The change will also help the Blue Line absorb extra ridership that may occur as a result of the Illinois Department of Transportation’s (IDOT) reconstruction of the Kennedy Expressway. The extra trains will provide more service and help address crowding as riders return to the office and other daily activities and events. This strategic service adjustment is designed to provide added capacity and improve service reliability by adding more trains to carry more riders. Those short-turn trips currently occur during the morning and afternoon rush hours when ridership is highest but will now expand to run throughout the day on a daily basis.
The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) will begin operational changes to provide more trains along the Blue Line O’Hare Branch March 26.Īdditional “short-turned” trips will operate on the Blue Line between the O’Hare and UIC-Halsted stations-the busiest section of the line.
