CTA will operate its #19 United Center Express buses to the United Center from North Michigan Avenue and State Street downtown for the Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young concerts at 8 p.m. Friday, April 14, and Saturday, April 15.
Fully accessible #19 United Center Express buses will operate every 12 minutes, beginning two hours before the start of each concert, and continuing until 30 minutes before the performance begins.
#19 buses start their trips southbound on Michigan at Chicago. After stopping on Michigan at Chicago and at Illinois, the buses turn west at Wacker and make another stop just west of Michigan. From there they continue west on Wacker and south on State, making stops at Lake, Washington and Madison before turning west on Madison.
Westbound on Madison, stops are made at Wells for riders transferring from the ?L," and at Clinton for Metra riders from the Ogilvie Transportation Center (North Western Station) and Union Station. A final stop is made at Halsted before the buses run express to the United Center.
After each concert, #19 United Express buses will await riders eastbound on Madison at Wood, near Gate 3, for return trips downtown via Madison, Halsted, Washington, State and Wacker back to Michigan. Buses will stop for the Ogilvie Center and Union Station at Canal, for the Blue Line subway at Dearborn, for the Red Line at State/Randolph, and for Brown, Green, and Orange Line trains at State/Lake. Once the buses enter Michigan Avenue, they will make all stops north to Chicago.
