This map depicts conditions from 1997 to present.

The Brown Line operates in a counterclockwise circuit around the Outer Loop track. The Purple Line Express and Orange Line operate in a clockwise circuit around the Inner Loop track. The Green Line operates only on the Lake and Wabash sides on both tracks.

On June 25, 2006, the Pink Line was added. This service operates clockwise on the Inner Loop with the Purple and Orange Lines. Madison/Wabash was closed on March 16, 2015 in preparation for the construction of Washington/​Wabash, which opened on August 31, 2017. Randolph/Wabash closed shortly after on September 3 that year. Quincy was upgraded and made accessible in 2018.
