The CTA 9 Ashland will be rerouted from its current turnaround on Clark north of Irving Park to continue north on Ashland to a new terminal at the Ravenswood Metra Station. Register for a virtual presentation on Thursday, June 6, at 6:00 PM here: bit.ly/ashlandbus
This change will eliminate the idling CTA buses on Clark St. near Belle Plaine.
From the Alderman Martin’s social media:
I am thrilled to have worked with the CTA to extend the #9 Ashland bus route to a new terminal at the Ravenswood Metra Station bringing this bus north of Irving Park on Ashland for the first time in its history! This will expand access to one of the busiest bus routes in the city to within ½ mile of an estimated 21,000 new residents and 15,000 new jobs. The extended route will also provide direct connections to the Metra, #78 Montrose bus, and #81 Lawrence bus. Join our office and the CTA for a virtual presentation on this route extension.
