Track Work Begins On North Section of Purple Line

The work is being done to eliminate slow zones on the line.

Expect delays on the Purple Line through November while track work continues on the northern section of the line.

The CTA will work from 9 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. on Sundays through Thursdays until Nov. 7, and 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays until Nov. 3, according to the city. Crews will be working on the Purple Line tracks from Church to Milburn streets.

While work is going on, trains will operate on a single track at Foster and Noyes Stations, and residents can expect construction noise.
