Just got back from lunch. On my way I noticed a very large Ryder truck driven by 2 ME types. They seemed to be very happy. Made me nervous. Thought about calling the cops, but what would I have said?
Folks, please stay alert.
The CTA operates the nation's second largest public transportation system and covers the City of Chicago and 40 surrounding suburbs. On an average weekday, 1.5 million rides are taken on the CTA.
CTA has approximately 2,000 buses that operate over 148 routes and 2,273 route miles. Buses provide about 1 million passenger trips a day and serve more than 12,000 posted bus stops. {{CTA's 1,190 rapid transit cars operate over seven routes and 222 miles of track. CTA trains provide about 500,000 customer trips each day and serve 144 stations. }}
NOTE:How do we begin to cover 144 stations?!
Chicago is one of the few cities in the world that provides rapid transit service to two major airports. From the downtown area the CTA's Blue Line takes customers to O'Hare International Airport in about 40 minutes and the Orange Line takes customers to Midway Airport in about 30 minutes
