What action does the CTA take to maintain safety during severe weather conditions?

The CTA adjusts service routes and schedules as needed during severe weather conditions to maintain safety and ensure the reliability of its transit services. This action allows the CTA to respond effectively to changing conditions, such as road closures due to snow or flooding, and prioritize the safe movement of buses and passengers. By modifying routes, the CTA can avoid hazardous areas and optimize service for those who may rely on public transportation during these challenging times.

This approach not only helps maintain safety but also demonstrates the agency's commitment to providing essential service while adapting to the unpredictable nature of severe weather. Adjustments may include rerouting buses around blocked streets or extending service hours to accommodate passengers with changed travel needs, ensuring that public transportation remains accessible and safe during adverse weather.
