new google maps ui still fails to render the blue line correctly and also appears to struggle with some of the double- and triple-decker streets downtown
what should be a 90 degree bend on the cta blue line rendered as a weird tight loop in the tracks

To be honest, CfA had many years to work with the Brigade community to make the Brigade Network sustainable. For some reason, CfA leadership kept pushing the community back to the drawing board.

As we begin the year, we want to share some changes coming to the Network program at Code for America. In recent years, our work has evolved, and there has been a decrease in funding available to support a decentralized network of Brigades.
