Game 7 of the World Series isn't over yet (bottom of the 8th inning as I type). But your chances of taking the CTA to and from Wrigleyville probably are.

The CTA announced via Twitter at 9:40 p.m. that Red Line trains are currently bypassing the Addison Station, and riders should plan on using the Belmont station instead.



Wrigleyville is, of course, the epicenter of pre-, during and post-game celebrations. It's a wild world out there, so please be careful getting home:



Update, 12:15 a.m.:
The Addison station reopened a short time after the game ended.
