Riding CTA Buses CTA buses stop at bus shelters or signs that look like this. Signs list the service days/general hours, route number, name and destinations, and the direction of travel.
When a bus approaches, look at the sign above the windshield. It will first show the route number and route name, then change to show the destination. If it’s the bus you want, flag it down.
