How does this affect my trip?
The pedway-to-street elevator located in the Roosevelt station transfer tunnel between the Green/Orange elevated lines and the Red Line subway is temporarily out of service.
Transferring between the Roosevelt elevated and subway stations via the transfer tunnel will be available by stairs and escalator only.
For accessible service:
- Enter/exit the Roosevelt elevated station on Roosevelt between State and Wabash.
