Here are official plans...

CTA Website

Due out July 17, it says.

I am soooooooooooooo not ready to give up on the CTA. But... $2 fares and very decreased service (service is cut by half on my Blue Line, and it's only a little better on the Red line... worse on other lines, too) is gonna eat away at me. Something damn well better be done.

What are we spending our money on here anyway? Video game bans? Crossbow Hunting? Casinos (that one's... not just yet)?

Check out a nice independent site on the issue:

Though, you have to admit, it won't be Doomsday for public transportation like that site says. Current gas prices will do a number on those people wanting to quit the L for the (not) open road.
