I have used public transportation in many different cities and countries and I have to say that our CTA rates very low compared to the other places. The facilities are not the best and could not only use major renovations, but also could be kept a bit cleaner. Also, the whole system is kind of a nuisance. The trains are often late and the trains are crowded. BUT with all that said, you really can't complain about the pricing and the ease, because gas is so high nowadays and traffic has become crazy on the roads. With that in mind, I guess the pros of the CTA outweigh the cons!
