CTA's Ride the Routes: Route 146 Northound (Real-time)

Ever wonder what it would be like to see Chicago from the point-of-view of a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) bus operator? Well, now you can, thanks to our new “Ride the Routes” video series! You no longer have to imagine what it would feel like to navigate a busy city street, constantly on the lookout for pedestrians, cars, trucks, delivery vans, motorcycles, bicycles – and the next bus stop - all while city landmarks and destinations pass by on your right or left… or loom ever closer right in front of you. The entire life of our bustling City is right outside your windshield! Now, the CTA offers an exciting companion piece to its popular 2014 video series, “Ride the Rails.” That collection of videos - highlighting CTA’s eight rail lines, with each seen from the perspective of the rail operator – has had more than 3 million views worldwide since its original release and 2019 update. Our stunning 4K “Ride the Routes” videos follow some of the City’s most popular bus routes, taking you, for example, down Jean Baptiste Point DuSable Lake Shore Drive and the Mag Mile or past Soldier Field or right to Navy Pier. Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride!
