Red Line riders, pained by slow zones and the work to cure slow zones, rejoice!
The CTA is stepping up work to improve your public transit plight, according to an announcement from their board meeting earlier today. According to a Trib story about how they will accomplish this fantastic feat six months earlier than projected, they will spend a lil' extra money in the hopes of reaping more ridership as a reward.
So how have slow zones made your life a one-way track to hell? Share, share. Do you think the CTA will get 'er done in six months, or is it a public transit pipe dream?

'Bout time Huberman did something and cracked the whip on these lazy workers. Every time I see CTA workers on the tracks, while a few are actually working, most of them are doing nothing but standing around, talking, and drinking their Dunkin Donuts coffee. Makes me wonder how fast things would get done by the CTA if these lazy slackers actually worked.
