CTA Crime Clusters by ALEX BORDENS | Tribune Graphics Since 2009, More Than 18,000 Crimes Were Reported on the CTA CTA crime clusters BY ALEX BORDENS | Tribune Graphics Since 2009, more than 18,000 crimes were reported on the CTA. Reports of crime were highest on the rail system, where 38.6 percent of all crimes were reported at rail platforms, though nearly 40 percent of those crimes were riders jumping turnstyles. On the bus system, violent crimes, such as robbery and battery, were clustered on the South and West sides, while thefts were more broadly distributed. Crimes at CTA rail stations From Jan. 1, 2009 to June 13 of this year, 3,943 crimes occurred at CTA stations, of which 38 percent were robberies or thefts. Red, Blue and Green Line stations had the largest number of overall crimes while riders boarding at Brown Line stations west of Southport experienced the least amount of crime.

  • Project Scope Why Is This Work Necessary? How Will This Benefit Red Line Riders?
    Red Line South Track Renewal project Cermak-Chinatown to 95th Street Spring/Summer 2013 CTA is planning to rebuild the South Red Line from just north of Cermak-Chinatown to 95th Street. The work will benefit Red Line riders for decades to come—through faster travel times, increased reliability, and spruced-up stations with a variety of improvements. As part of the project, in Spring/Summer 2013 the Red Line will be completely closed from Roosevelt Road to 95th Street for five months. CTA will offer several alternative travel options during this closure to minimize the impact on customers as much as possible (see other side of this page). Cermak- Faster travel times Better reliability Improved stations Chinatown Project scope CTA will replace all of the ties, rails, third rails, drainage system and ballast (the stone material that holds the ties in place) in the Red Line right of way. Additionally, all nine stations along the Dan Ryan Branch will be improved, from basic enhancements like new paint and better lighting Sox-35th to additional customer amenities, like new benches and bike racks. New elevators will be installed at the Garfield, 63rd and 87th Street stations—making the entire South Red Line fully accessible. 47th Garfield Why is this work necessary? The Dan Ryan Branch was built in 1969, when Richard Nixon was in the White House, a gallon 63rd of gas cost 35 cents and Gale Sayers won the NFL rush- ing title. The original tracks are well beyond their expected Dan Ryan terminal dedication 1969 lifespan, and call for a complete replacement.

  • Station Tour October 20, 2002
    4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour October 20, 2002 Presented By: Chicago-L.org 4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour Guide Union Loop When the tour begins at Quincy station downtown, you will find yourself on the old Union Elevated Railroad, commonly known as "the Loop." The only man who could accomplish the difficult task of bringing a common downtown terminal to the Chicago elevated rapid transit system, which used to end at a separate terminal for each company, was Charles Tyson Yerkes. He had enough political deftness and power to convince store owners to sign consent forms allowing construction of the overhead structures on their streets (although alley routes were briefly contemplated). Though it was difficult — two segments had to be obtained under the names of existing "L" companies while for the two other legs, two companies, the Union Elevated Railroad and the Union Consolidated Elevated Railroad, had to be created — Yerkes managed to coordinate it all. As can be imagined from its piecemeal The construction of the Loop through downtown, seen here look- method of obtaining of leases, the Union Loop (referred ing west at Lake and Wabash circa 1894, was a major construction to simply as "the Loop" today) opened in pieces, starting project. In spite of the disruption, the project brought innumerous benefits to the central business district. (Photo from the Krambles- in 1895, with the Lake Street "L" making the first full Peterson Archive) circuit in 1897. North Side Main Line/Ravenswood Line After leaving the Loop through Tower 18 (at Lake & Wells), once the busiest railroad junction in the world, you will be on what is today the Brown (Ravenswood) Line.
