Full description
Chicago runs on the CTA. Transit Tracks makes sure you're not the one running for it. Whether you live in the Windy City or you're just passing through, Transit Tracks is a fast, no-nonsense bus tracker and train tracker. So you can spend your morning somewhere warmer than a bus shelter on Western Ave. Features: * Real-time CTA arrivals. Live arrival and departure times for every bus route and train line on the CTA network, updated continuously from the official source. • Service alerts on your route. Reroutes, delays, and temporary changes show up before they wreck your commute, not after you've waited 20 minutes. • One-tap favorites. Save the stops you ride every day and label them the way you actually think about them: Work, Home, Yoga in the Park, etc. • Nearby stops, instantly. See every bus stop and train station around you on a map. New neighborhood? You're covered. Transit Tracks uses publicly available CTA data and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Chicago Transit Authority.
