Call for hearing(s) on benefits from bus infrastructure improvements on mobility and traffic safety
Chicago Transit Authority's bus service, crucial for 96% of residents, experienced a 9% speed decrease due to congestion. Multiple 2023 plans, including Mayor Johnon’s report, the Regional Transit Authority’s plan, Chicago Metropolitan Area Plan, Illinois Department of Transportation Plan, and the CTA and CDOT Better Streets For Buses Plan, advocate for improved bus service. The Committee on Pedestrian and Traffic Safety is called upon for a hearing on bus infrastructure improvements.
