Items directly related to bus and rail service will be of particular interest to customers who are blind or visually impaired.

We will have presentations about Customer Service reports, elevator and escalator reliability, bus operations, new construction projects of major rail stations and bus terminals.

Under bus operations, we may discuss notifying the community about changes in bus stop locations and obtaining information about bus stop locations while traveling.

We also may have discussion about the ongoing New Freedom Grant, by which orientation and mobility specialists at the Chicago Lighthouse are preparing discriptions of rail stations.
