Hats off to the Red Eye

Thanks to Kyra Kyles and the Red Eye for spotlighting our blog in the "Hey, CTA!" section of the paper. In case you weren't aware, The CTA Blog - Going Public, Your Turn, and the columnists and photo sections of "Hey, CTA!" also keep the pressure on Lake Street and the CTA board. We need to stay informed, and they do, too!!

We transit riders need as many allies as we can get. And honestly, I want to be proud of the CTA again!

Kudos to the Red Eye...and keep up the good work Kyra!!
