With Phase Three of the city’s phased reopening plan set to go into effect on Wednesday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced that the city’s Central Business District and Loop will reopen after being closed off to the public for several days. NBC 5’s Mary Ann Ahern has the story.
CTA will resume rail and bus service Wednesday morning, but trains and buses will continue to bypass stops in the Loop.
Service was expected to resume at 5 a.m., according to a statement from the transit authority. Trains will bypass stations at Jackson Boulevard, Clark and Lake Streets, State and Lake Streets, Lake Street, Grand Avenue, and Chicago Avenue.
Bus routes will also be rerouted in the downtown area, due to local street and bridge closures, officials said.
