Ditch Traffic and Expensive Parking - Have CTA Take You to the Fun This Weekend!

April 18, 2019

Unlike limos, ride-hailing vehicles and taxis, CTA is providing service to and from the game that’s just steps away from Wrigley Field

Need another great reason to take CTA to the Cubs game? To reduce traffic congestion limos, ride-hailing vehicles and taxis will be restricted from picking up and dropping off passengers in close proximity to Wrigley Field.

Event service/extra service
Wrigley Field
Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Chicago Cubs – Fri. 4/19, Sat. 4/20 and Sun. 4/21 at 1:20 p.m.

Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Chicago Cubs – Tues. 4/23 and Wed. 4/24 at 7:05 p.m.

CTA recommends allowing plenty of travel time and purchasing fares and unlimited-ride passes in advance. More information about purchasing fares is below.

Buy your unlimited ride passes and fares in advance
Avoid long lines to buy fares! Customers can add  unlimited ride passes (1-day, 3-day, 7-day and 30-day) or add money to pay per-ride to their Ventra cards ahead of time via the free Ventra app, at rail station Ventra vending machines, online or at nearly 900 local retailers (for locations visit ventrachicago.com or the Ventra app).

Customers can also purchase 1-day unlimited ride tickets ($10) or single-ride tickets ($3) from all Ventra vending machines. Single-ride tickets include up to two transfers in two hours. Customers can also pay their fares with their personal contactless debit or credit cards.
