Chicago Transit Authority maintenance crews will be repairing elevators at the Brown Line Western Avenue station from early Saturday, October 2 through early Monday, October 4.
The elevators at Western Avenue leading from street level to the platform will be out of service from 12:00 a.m. Saturday, October 2 through 12:00 a.m. Monday, October 4 while they undergo repairs. While this work is in progress, the Kimball Avenue station will be the alternate accessible station.
