Brown Line service has been temporarily suspended between the Kimball and Southport stations on the North Side because of “track conditions,” according to the transit agency.
As a result, trains are operating only between the Southport and the Loop stations, a CTA alert said.
The track conditions were caused by repairs that needed to be done, according to CTA spokesperson Manny Gonzalez. “We have work crews there now,” said Gonzalez. “Not sure what caused it.”
Shuttle buses will be made available between Kimball and Southport to provide connecting service through the affected area, the CTA said.
Riders can consider alternatives such as nearby bus routes, or using buses to other rail lines. Additionally, consider using the #81 Lawrence and #82 Kimball bus routes.
