This helps explain the concept, while avoiding the headline and visual combining to form the dreaded âsay what you see approachâ. Agency Rocket Yard

Chicago currently has a critically low blood supply and urgently needs donors. Right now, the city only has a 1 - 1.5-day supply of blood on hand, which is 50% lower than usual. And that could cause delays with surgeries, cancer treatments, and severely impact emergency response in the event of traumas.

To do this, Vitalant is transforming the CTA Red Line, Chicagoâs main artery, into the Blood Line. The initiative begins the week of January 14th, and will run for four weeks. The exterior of two CTA Red Line trains will be wrapped with Blood Line imagery, as well as the full interior.
