The Chicago Transit Authority unveiled plans on Tuesday for a major restructuring of its bus and train lines throughout the city, adding service on its most congested lines to reduce overcrowding during peak hours. The agency is also planning to eliminate 12 low-ridership bus routes.
All train lines except the Pink and Yellow are scheduled to receive more trains and more frequent service. The majority of the service increases will focus on the Red, Blue and Brown lines. For bus riders, 48 routes will expand service.
