Is Chicago Transit Authority experiencing delays? ❌

Contacts:

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) is the agency responsible for providing public transportation in the city of Chicago. It operates an extensive network of buses, trains, and other forms of transit to serve residents and visitors

No problems at Chicago Transit Authority

Has anyone verified of CTA is actually doing this 40 minute gap on the southbound red line or is it just an error in the schedule? Neither really reflects well on the CTA.

Please fix the blue line @cta

My @cta Red line train broke down at Fullerton and then I transferred to Purple and the first thing from the operator was “we are in a slow zone due to unknown reason. We will have delay slips for everyone.” How do people tolerate this?

I am so glad that @Splanish’s appointment to the CTA Board sailed through the Transportation committee today! It is so reassuring that once confirmed by the full council we will have such a solid transportation & housing champion on the board — and, a regular user of the system!

there’s like 10-15 busses on 22 clark and all of them are going southbound and are all right next to each other @cta make it make sense

1m

Just got ghosted and the next bus is in 25 minutes, which will get me home at the same time as if I just walk, which will take 40. But CTA is ready to introduce more service? I call bullshit.

every @cta service disruption is handled like it’s the very first one the agency has ever experienced

CTA let their SSL certificate expire again.

CTA service is pretty bad tonight. I’ve now considered multiple potential routes and all of them consist waiting 20 minutes in the cold, wind, and rain. This isn’t what “meeting the moment” looks like. This is what “failure to lead” looks like.

Just saw a couple break up on the train platform. Absolutely brutal. Breaking up after work and the having to stand bawling on the train platform And then keep standing awkwardly bc the first two trains that came were so full nobody would get on @cta

"Minor delays" is CTA-speak for "The Blue Line is once again completely shut down at the height of rush hour" @CTAFails @cta

Is anyone at @cta @ChicagosMayor @JBPritzker awake? Is any policymaker paying attention to the utter failure of service provision on the L?
