Description
Published by the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) in 1971, this map of Chicago shows the city’s transportation network near its maximum extent under the agency’s authority. Just two years after the map was issued, the Regional Transportation Authority was created to regulate and manage suburban operations.
Additional details on CTA operations, plus an inset map of the Loop, are shown in the lower left. Service has yet to be extended to Midway Airport, though progress on the construction to the line to O’Hare is shown.
