The Chicago Department of Transportation announced a two‑day delay in repairs to the Lake Street bridge over the Chicago River, extending the closure through Oct. 27, 2026. Consequently, the Chicago Transit Authority will keep the Green and Pink lines on their temporary routing.
The bridge has been under repair for weeks, and the postponement adds to the two‑week period the lines have been rerouted.
