How significant will the service reductions be?
Fewer trains will be able to run during the morning and evening rush periods due to the reduction of tracks from four to three. The most significant reductions will be in southbound service during the morning rush. The CTA recommends riders allow extra travel time and leave earlier or later during peak travel times, especially during the morning rush. The CTA also recommends that customers consider alternate service during the morning rush, such as CTA buses, as there are numerous bus routes that serve the affected corridor.
