Anyway the thread brings to mind Nortran [they were absorbed by Pace some years back]. They had a slogan "We go where you go and stop where you stop". Times bring about a change. Nortran used to go to Glenview Naval Air Station, which I guess proves your point. Quote
Busjack Posted May 1, 2017 Author Report Posted May 1, 2017 The Passenger Notices also has this for 221-Bruce Wolf Rd, 353-River Oaks/Homewood, and 366 Park Forest-Chicago Heights, Quote
Busjack Posted May 7, 2017 Author Report Posted May 7, 2017 Another one you can add to the "probably next" list is 626. All new signs up, including in some unexpected locations (like on Lake Cook Road on the far side of Saunders Rd). BTW, one way to tell a new bus stop sign is that it has a slash between routes on multi-route stops instead of a dash, i.e. 234/272/626, not 234-272-626). Quote
rotjohns Posted May 30, 2017 Report Posted May 30, 2017 Looks like Pace is really ramping up the Posted Stops Only. A slew of them go into effect on June 11th or 12th: http://www.pacebus.com/sub/schedules/route_notices.asp Quote

Busjack Posted August 16, 2017 Author Report Posted August 16, 2017 Latest notices are for 240, 318.and 571. Quote
Pace831 Posted October 7, 2017 Report Posted October 7, 2017 501 looks like it will soon be posted stops only. There are new bus stop signs all along the route including "W Trips Only" signs on the Shorewood branch. Quote

Also, the signs are posted on the new routing in Lincolnshire. Quote
Busjack Posted February 22, 2018 Author Report Posted February 22, 2018 307 is next (Passenger Notice). Quote
Busjack Posted April 9, 2018 Author Report Posted April 9, 2018 Looks like 272 will be soon. New signs in the Lincolnshire area. Too far off the road to make them out completely, but the 12/2017 schedule has straight Milwaukee as C trips. Quote

chicagocubs6323 Posted September 7, 2018 Report Posted September 7, 2018 Pretty soon, #311 will become Posted Stop Only. A month ago I tweeted at Pace suggesting this because I've talked to drivers who have said that there are occasions where if they depart North/Narragansett, they will arrive at 47th 45 mins late. Also, I have always found 311 unreliable so I'm glad they're taking this into action now. Since last week, Pace has been taking down old signs and posting new ones along Oak Park Ave. I can confirm a driver told me today that 311 will become Posted Stop Only. Quote
Busjack Posted September 7, 2018 Author Report Posted September 7, 2018 Everything eventually will be. What seems to be overkill is that school trips are also included, so there are signs near Maine East for 423/240 'C' Trips/250 'G' trips, and in this case, the 423 will be gone in about 8 months (in that 423 moves from Harlem to Waukegan).

CircleSeven Posted February 19, 2019 Report Posted February 19, 2019 Looks like the #208 Golf will be next, starting March 3rd. Quote
