Better Streets for Buses

CTA and the Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) are developing the Better Streets for Buses Plan to be the City’s first framework plan to improve street infrastructure for public bus service, and lay the groundwork for ongoing bus infrastructure improvements by establishing a network of corridors to prioritize and a toolbox of street treatments to consider as solutions.

Thank you to everyone who provided comments on the Better Streets for Buses Plan, participated in a public meeting, or helped us spread the word about the public comment opportunity! We received thousands of comments from all over the city and are now reviewing them to inform revisions to the plan. If you would like to receive updates on the project, please send an email to betterstreetsforbuses@transitchicago.com. Updates will also be posted here and on the project website, www.betterstreetsforbuses.com.
