I noticed they changed some of the Joliet destination signs and now they make less sense. I saw a NB 504 that said "CENTER CITY" (shouldn't that be CITY CENTER), which didn't flip to anything else. A 508 still had the old "JOLIET CTR" sign. An even stranger one was on the NB 834 trip that leaves Joliet at 5:10 PM and only goes to Bolingbrook. It used to be 834 JOLIET-DRGV (flip) 834 BOLINGBROOK. When I saw it, it was 834 JOLIET-DRGV (flip) 834 53/OLD CHGO (flip) 834 VIA 75TH. Makes no sense because it goes to Briarcliff, not Old Chicago, and via 75th is irrelevant because the bus doesn't go that far. Another observation, they put up standard bus stop signs downtown for what is supposed to be a temporary detour. I suppose they're relatively easy to install and they didn't want to confuse people at the transfer area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note there is actually a slash after Schaumburg. Looks like Pace is getting a little more consistent on giving the same point the same name, i.e. both 307 and 757 have Harlem/South Blvd./CTA Green Line, even though the preliminary 307 Harlem has been deleted from other destinations (and Argo is no more). Still haven't done anything about 626 SKOKIE SWFT, even though there is also 620 Dempster/620 Yellow Line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pace831 Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 I noticed an 888 destination sign still said "S HOLLAND" despite that stop being discontinued a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
