Getting around in Chicago, IL

There are many ways to get around in Chicago, especially if you're staying in one of Chicago's downtown hotels. You can drive, get a cab, use the public transportation service or even catch a free trolley. On our site, you will find everything you need to know, in order to easily get around in Chicago, whether you're on a budget or not, during you stay.

 

Public Transportation

 

The public transportation service, in Chicago, is provided by CTA (Chicago Transit Authority), which operates trains and buses within Chicago's city limits, as well as in some of the nearby suburbs. The CTA train lines are divided by colors - Green, Red, Brown, Blue, Purple, Orange, Pink and Yellow. All the lines lead to the Loop, except the Yellow line, which is a non-stop shuttle, between the northern border of the city and Skokie suburb. The buses run on nearly every major street in the city, and the bus stop can be easily spotted - just look for a blue and white sign.

 

Car

 

Before you decide to get behind the wheel at start driving, you should know that the traffic in Chicago can be only described in one word - awful. Although the city streets are laid out on the grid, many present multiple levels, which can confuse even the most `professional` city driver. Parking is also an issue, because it can get quite expensive, most the parking spots in the Loop costing as much as $40 a day.

 

Travel Tip: Do not, under any circumstances, use the cell phone while driving, because it is illegal. The Chicago police officers are quite eager to write tickets for it. Be sure to purchase a hands-free headset, or better yet, just pull over if you need to make a call, in order to avoid the displease of having to pay a fine.

 

Taxi

 

Even though, Chicago has one of the cheapest taxi fares in the country, if you're on a budget during your stay, it would be best to use their services only if you're in a hurry and you don't need to travel far from your hotel.

 

Bike

 

Getting around by bike may be the best way to get around in Chicago, especially now, when all the CTA buses have been equipped with bike racks (you can combine riding the bike with riding the bus, and, therefore, save money), and due to the fact that Chicago is one of the most bike-friendly cities in the country, with miles of on-street bike path and signage, including a scenic a bike path along the shores of Lake Michigan.
