The station serves as the southern terminus of the Chicago Transit Authority's Red Line. The station was the system's thirteenth busiest in 2021.

History

The station opened on September 28, 1969, as part of the Dan Ryan branch, in the mid-1990s, the station's name was changed from 95th to 95/Dan Ryan, then later to 95th/Dan Ryan.

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.
