The CTA pledged to accelerate improvements to more than 125 of its 145 rail stations, nearly 90% of the system’s rail stations, according to a news release, with each station to be repainted and power washed this year at a minimum. Nearly a third of the identified stations in the “Refresh & Renew” program announced Wednesday will undergo more extensive maintenance, including upgraded lighting, concrete repairs and improved amenities such as trash bins and benches.
