History

[edit]

Structure

[edit]
Station exterior and bus terminal

The current station was reconstructed from 1992 until 1994, and is made out ofbrick andconcrete with a spacious metal and glasstrain shed, but lacks the styling or decoration found in many other CTA stations, giving Davis a modern urban, if utilitarian, feel. The station sports two prominent clock towers, on the west and east sides. It has several different paintings hanging in various areas of the platform. It also has a light board system, as well as a speaker system to alert passengers of train delays. There is a retail space on the lower level, near the fare card vending machines.

Platform signage

[edit]

Davis is one of the four test sites for the Active Transit Station Signs (ATSS) program. In September 2002, the signs were installed at the station. The signs display preprogrammed and service-related messages as well as a countdown until the next train; however, the Davis station's signs do not display the countdown feature due to a programming glitch.[2]
