While bus service is currently available between Chicago's Museum Campus into the city, and other locations such as MSI and Lincoln Park, it can and should be improved for all local and suburban residents as well as visitors. Express bus service between parking centers and CTA transit stations and Metra stations would be best. Transit coordination needs to be improved in scheduling.

Buses leaving the campus are often held up when tourists who are unfamiliar with the CTA attempt to make correct change for their bus fare. If Ventra machines were present on the campus, many of these bottlenecks could be avoided.

I work at Shedd, and I used to use the #146 frequently. However, when they cut back service (about 2 years ago?), it eliminated about half the runs to the Museum Campus. So now I just walk from Roosevelt, since the bus only runs the full route (from Berywn to Adler) every 20min during rush periods. My suggestion would be to return the frequency of runs the #146 bus makes to and from Museum Campus to where it was 2 years ago. Also to stop having buses start and stop runs at Roosevelt, since those runs isolate the Museum Campus. Submitted on behalf of an employee at the Shedd Aquarium
