Pulse is every 10 min peak, 15 min midday/weekend, and 20 min evening. Seems the big cut is those who ride the 270 north of Golf Mill, the peak service is going from 30 min to 60 min. Quote

Dempster and Milwaukee cross each other There has to be some way to identify these routes other than Milwaukee Pulse or Dempstet Pulse. I guess we will get some idea soon. Quote
west towns Posted July 23, 2019 Report Posted July 23, 2019 why? does the cta red line have a number ? metra milwaukee north? brown line? seems it ok for those why not a brt line Quote

Each CTA rail line has a NAME which happens to be a color. Each Metra Line has a NAME like BNSF or North Central. If you are boarding at Union Station, you look for the name to see which track it boards on. Each CTA and Pace bus route has a ROUTE NUMBER AND NAME i.e 63 63rd or 270 Milwaukee. So even if it is a pulse, or BRT, it should come with a route number, like P270 or 270X, with a name like Milwaukee Pulse. Remember the Pulse service will expand next to Dempster with eyes toward Harlem, Halsted, and 95th in the future. Quote
west towns Posted July 24, 2019 Report Posted July 24, 2019 maybe check the Pulse website if they are numbered Quote
west towns Posted July 24, 2019 Report Posted July 24, 2019 on website its called Pace Pulse Milwaukee Line Pace Pulse Dempster Line how is this different then Metra Milwaukee North Metra North Central CTA Red Line CTA Pink Line? Quote

All Pace routes (so far) have a number, even if it is not used in Pace’s marketing materials. The Schaumburg Trolley is 905, and all the On Demands are numbered as well (mostly in the 590’s). His question is whether Pulse routes will similarly have a unique number, which hasn’t been identified yet. 1 1 Quote
west towns Posted July 24, 2019 Report Posted July 24, 2019 it was compared to metra lines and cta lines Quote

Routes externally don’t necessarily need a number for it to matter. There will likely be an internal number that planners and analysts will use, but to the usual eye, it’s Pulse. Quote
Guest Posted July 24, 2019 Report Posted July 24, 2019 Damn!, So Ill have to go back to Metra in the mornings if Pace is serious about this schedule change Quote
