I got caught in the construction this morning.

The flyer they handed out says "Temporary closures will occur along sections of the subway most weekends through the end of 2009.

Right now, they're in Phase 1, and you get bused between Western and Clark/Lake in both directions. It was pretty slow since the bus I was on (Northbound) went up Clark to Grand to Milwaukee, then went North on Ashland, West on North Ave., and then North on Western. This phase is supposed to last all summer.

The flyer says the actual work is from Division to Grand (isn't this the same section they just finished?)

Phase 2 (summer through fall) shows work between Grand and Lake/Clark.

Phase 3 (fall to end of 2009) shows work between Clark/Lake and Clinton.
