NewFlyerMCI Posted March 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2020 Well, Temple University will transition to online classes effective next Monday due to Coronavirus concerns and are also asking most people to leave the dorms as well. Is UChicago still open? And if they close for the rest of the semester, are the 171/172/192 still going to run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand The NHL and the NBA have suspended their seasons with MLB expected to follow suit. As far as UC, I don't know if they will only have classes online like many other UNIVERSITIES, but I don't think it will impact service on 170/1/2. They are still public routes, as is the 192. The UC also has hospitals. How ridership is affected remains to be seen, but for now dont expect any changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine routes 171 and 172 might be reduced to peak-only, like during the summer, but I also wouldn't be surprised if nothing happens to them. I don't think anything will happen to the 192.

Usually it’s close to completely packed,” Pilger said. She added that the only people on it seemed to be blue collar workers. “The demographic of the train was very different. It’s almost completely working class black and brown people. Like me, they have jobs that we can’t do from home,” Pilger said. Expand I found that tidbit the most interesting in the whole article. It's interesting because Temple is making us vacate the dorms and normally, I'd return to DC since I live there, but I might have to return to Chicago because my mother is moving into a smaller place and if that's the case, I'd have to return to Chicago and I'd be forced to look for work, probably at Jewel's since I'm within 1 bus ride of the on at 75th/Stony & 60th/Cottage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
