\nEarlier this month, Alderman Reilly was notified that the CTA made a last-minute revision to the #66 bus detour plan due to the Chicago Avenue Bridge closure.<\/p>\n
This change eliminated all stops on Chicago Avenue between Larrabee and Orleans – and forced many residents to walk almost a half mile to the nearest bus stop. Alderman Reilly immediately began working with the CTA to restore the\u00a0eliminated bus stops to improve service during the bridge closure.<\/p>\n
Alderman Reilly is pleased to report that effective Friday, November 9, the\u00a0westbound\u00a0#66 resumed the original detour path, which will remain in place until the Chicago Bridge reopens: Chicago, Larrabee, Division, Halsted, Chicago.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, effective Monday, November 26 at 5am, CTA implemented the following\u00a0eastbound\u00a0#66 reroute, which will now accommodate riders. This route will remain in place until the Chicago Bridge reopens: Chicago, Halsted,\u00a0Division, Crosby, Hobbie, Larrabee, Chicago.<\/p>\n
Chicago Avenue Bridge Reconstruction<\/strong> Marked detours<\/a>\u00a0have been designed for bicyclists, pedestrians, personal vehicles, buses and trucks.\u00a0CDOT is making every effort to minimize traffic disruptions and is limiting other construction on the detour routes, and restricting\u00a0parking to maximize road capacity.<\/p>\n CDOT will communicate regularly with stakeholders on the progress of this project, and we will include these updates in\u00a0Reilly Reports.
