History
The 95th/Dan Ryan station has undergone significant transformations since its opening on September 28, 1969, as part of the Dan Ryan branch. Initially, the station was simply known as 95th, but in the mid-1990s, its name was updated to 95/Dan Ryan, and later to 95th/Dan Ryan. Over the years, the station has undergone several renovations, including the addition of an elevator in 2000-01 and minor refurbishments. Further improvements were made in 2003 with the renovation of the bus terminal, and most recently, a major reconstruction project took place from 2014 to 2019, bringing the station up to modern standards.
After the Red Line South Reconstruction project was completed in October 2013, the CTA commenced a rebuild of the 95th/Dan Ryan terminal, at a cost of $240 million. The station remained open during the project, which began on September 22, 2014. The entire project was completed on April 27, 2019, with the reopening of the Red Line train platform under the South Terminal building, which became a walkway, the new and expanded terminal has a pedestrian bridge that connects the North and South Terminal buildings, four customer assistant booths, two on the outside of the station, one in the North Terminal and one in the South Terminal, six station entrances, four at the North Terminal and two at the South Terminal, additional escalators, elevators and stairs, additional turnstiles and Ventra card machines, additional bike racks, security cameras, and more bus boarding areas than the old station.
