Ask Carole

Welcome! I created this blog to answer some of the questions people have been asking about the CTA's funding situation. We on the board have asked many of these same questions, and we want to help get the word out. So please feel free to send comments or questions to CTAboard@transitchicago.com, and check back regularly for answers and updates to our efforts to increase transit funding. -- Carole

Busy week in Springfield

It's another busy week in Springfield. Tuesday was Transit Lobby Day, with business, labor, environmental, and community groups traveling down together on buses to make the case with General Assembly members for more investment in public transit. I will be down in Springfield again today with Mayor Daley as we continue our efforts to make sure everyone in Springfield understands how important transit is to our six county region's economy and to our daily lives.

Many of you have posted good comments and questions. I'll answer many of them later this week and give you all an update on our lobbying efforts.
