Chicago-area residents and visitors will have to find alternative modes of transportation in the Loop, as trains on four different CTA lines will not be operating in the downtown area.

Elevated rail service on the Brown, Green, and Orange lines will be suspended through the Loop beginning on Saturday morning, and Pink Line passengers will also be impacted, according to the agency.

According to CTA, train service is being suspended due to track maintenance taking place around the Tower 18 rail junction, located at the intersection of Lake and Wells.

Five different CTA train lines operate through the junction in the Loop, with dozens of trains making their way through the area every day.

Train service on the Red and Blue lines, which use subway tunnels in the Loop, will be unaffected.
