In Spring 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Pace announced the temporary suspension of 73 routes and reductions to another 25 routes on an emergency basis. As part of the 2021 budget approval process, Pace took action to continue those suspensions and reductions.
Pace has been closely monitoring changes in demand for service as well as the impact of Illinois' transition on June 11, 2021 to Phase 5 of its reopening plan. To that end, effective August 8 and 9, 2021, several of those previously suspended (or reduced) routes are being reinstated, and those services being reinstated are noted in the list below. Reinstating service on these routes is a positive step in the reopening process as work, school and social activities start to return to normal.
The other services on this list, which have been suspended since Spring 2020, continue to be suspended and are not displayed in the Routes and Schedules section of the Pace website. Similarly, the services which had service reductions in Spring 2020 (also listed below) continue to operate at that reduced level of service, and the route pages for those services are showing the updated schedules, dated November 12, 2020, which accurately reflect the level of service that has been in place since Spring 2020.
Consistent with our public statements over the past 16 months, Pace continues to re-evaluate and--subject to demand and availability of resources--may reinstate additional service in the months to come. Future status updates for these routes will be posted on this page and sent to subscribers of Pace's alerts.
