Levy Bus Schedule Changes Begin this Month

As of March 1, some changes have been made to the Levy Bus schedule: 

1. The 12:15 p.m. route will now leave the Levy Center at 12:30 p.m.

2. The last run of the Levy bus will be at 3:30 p.m., rather than 3 p.m. This will give people the opportunity to participate in longer-running programs without the worry of missing the bus. 

3. Grocery shopping will be on Wednesdays only. The bus will drop off at Food for Less and Jewel and then return to pick you up. 

4. On the third Tuesday of every other month, the Levy bus will take people to the Century Theatre in Evanston. The bus will leave from the Levy Center at 10:45 a.m. and return at 2:45 p.m. to pick up patrons at the theatre. Watch the Levy news for the exact date in April.


5. The bus will continue to go to the Art Institute of Chicago on the third Tuesday of every other month (the opposite month of the Century Theatre).
