Shortcut Spotlight: CTA Bus Arrival Estimates

Now that old man winter has Chicago firmly in his grasp, we thought it was a great time to showcase the very useful CTA Bus Arrival Estimates shortcut. This shortcut lets you check on when the next CTA bus is going to arrive at your stop, so you're not waiting out in the bitter cold if it's running late. It makes use of the actual GPS signals being relayed from the buses, so it's pretty accurate. Try it out and save yourself some frustration.

A big shout-out to Harper Reed whose awesome Transit API work made it really easy to put this shortcut together.
