You raise the CTA price a quarter and people become outraged. <br /><br />However, re: Boohoo I think it is a travesty that a public rail line does not have handicapped access. Correcting that grand oversight is much more efficient than keeping those old routes.UptownLibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16037531511363912067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1957537260422450632.post-85800994773370258912014-01-29T14:07:23.208-06:002014-01-29T14:07:23.208-06:00Ryan, there has been a Wilson-Michigan direct bus ...Ryan, there has been a Wilson-Michigan direct bus since before 1920.

Then they stopped running them. Now I can drive all the way downtown, OR drive to Addison and park as close as I can to the L station there, OR drive to Foster and park on a residential street and get the bus there. So losing the Wilson buses has been a big inconvenience.

Having to sit through all the additional stops between Belmont and Irving Park adds an additional 15-20 minutes to one's commute.
