Source: CTA Customer Alerts (elevator status). The CTA does not publish an elevator inventory, so only elevators it reports as out of service are listed; stations not listed have no elevator alert posted, which does not guarantee every elevator is working. Estimated return dates are the CTA’s own estimates and may change.
