CHICAGO - The Chicago Transit Authority now plans to install high-resolution security cameras at all 144 of its rapid transit train stations.
The agency's board approved Wednesday a $4.3 million contract with Teleste Corp. of Georgetown, Texas, to install cameras and related equipment.
CTA president Richard Rodriguez says the first new cameras will be installed by the end of the year at 17 stations on the Green Line where there is a high incidence of pickpocketing and other crimes.
Next in line are 12 Red Line stations that will be monitored by cameras by the end of next May.
The CTA already has cameras at 45 of its stations.
