Yea they will sent a message & say from a express these many stops etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the run number list, 800s would be off Western. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the spirit of Baseball Soring Training, that's an Error. Speaking of errors, Dual motors not duel motors Their means belonging to them They're means they are There refers to a location Fair means just, or it means okay Fare is a payment for a ride. Anyway, we know the 157 Streeterville/Taylor is the correct name. Hopefully this is the only bus stop with this error. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using the proper definition of "consistently," they were consistently wrong over stretches of the route. Considering that computer templates are used to print the signs, expect such consistency.

Also strange is the "West to Pulaski" part, as the Madison/Canal stop is EB only, although the bus is going north at that point until it turns east at Washington. It might also be nice if it told people to get the WB 157 at Madison/Clinton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on this post saying the bus stop is on MADISON at Canal, rge direction of the routes are correct. Had it been on CANAL at MADISON, then it would be all wrong. However, I do think the 60's direction should also be WEST and not south Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artthouwill Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 52 minutes ago, Busjack said: If the location is properly stated, all 3 are wrong. MADISON is a one way Westbound so if the bus stop us in Madison, the direction is correct although I think the 60 should also be West and not South Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
