Chicago13 Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 Today, I saw 192x (can't remember the last digit) going SB on Clark, and the destination sign read CLARK TO HARRISON instead of CLARK TO POLK. The next 3 buses going south had blank signs. A little later I saw 2 more in a row with blanks signs followed by a 3rd with the CLARK TO HARRISON reading. Any idea what's going on? Bustracker still shows them going to Polk before turning east back to Dearborn. I've also been seeing the NF's on Lincoln now displaying 11 LINCOLN [flip] TO [flip] HOWARD/McCORMICK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a a paper CTA guide in front of me and it says it terminates at Harrison... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that situation the sign wouldn't technically be inaccurate despite the route being named 'Lincoln/Sedgwick' regardless. Which opens up the can of worms of the weekday 145 short runs having some form of a flip showing Wilson/Mich Exp despite not operating on Wilson during those trips.

santran Posted March 29, 2009 Report Share Posted March 29, 2009 I noticed alot of blank 22 buses today. The 22 ends at Harrison then goes to Polk on it's return trip north if it has one. Some dest. sign changes are happening to make things more clear I think. The 11 used to say Howard/Ked, when it actualy ended at Howard/McCormick. I also noticed the 155 says Devon to Ash and Morse. Used to say Devon to Morse Red L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Signs still read LINCOLN/SEDGWICK not just LINCOLN. I spotted the new destinations during the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 155 signs used to say to ASH/MORSE a long time ago too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 155 signs used to say to ASH/MORSE a long time ago too. The reason the signs read say HARRISON is because we now layover at Clark and Harrison SB before heading to Polk to turn around for the northbound trip. Before the 22s used to layover a quarter of a block from the intersection of Clark and Polk, but due to recent development and parking in the area...that is no longer the case.

tonytavell Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 why did they move the optimas to Archer instead of keeping them at 103rd ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cta_44499_FG Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 why did they move the optimas to Archer instead of keeping them at 103rd ? Because Archer received the U of Chicago routes Can you paint a rainbow to be less beautiful? Anything else relating to the 22? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
