TaylorTank1229 Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I’m looking at what bus routes were assigned to the Archer Ave. bug garage between the year 2000 and when the garage officially shut down. I’m aware of few routes that were assigned there between that time, but if you know what other routes were, please comment below. -21: Cermak Rd -35th: 35th St -39: Pershing Rd -49: Western Ave -X49: Western Ave Express -50: Damen Ave -62 Archer Ave (Oblivious) -94: South California Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nflyer22 Posted January 22, 2018 Report Share Posted January 22, 2018 Speaking of cut routes, there was also 122 and the 170-174 UChicago routes. Archer served 120 before the Streeterville extension. There was also the 165, which are interlined with the 63W during rush periods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jajuan Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Don't forget that 165 was also assigned there too in addition to what was mentioned in the opening post and Anthony Devera's additional ones quoted from Bill V's site.
