The Red and Purple Modernization (RPM) Program would fully replace old, deteriorating infrastructure and stations along Chicago’s busiest rail line, paving the way for CTA to significantly increase train capacity and improve service for generations to come. RPM Phase One This massive, multistaged program would be completed in phases and would provide riders with all the benefits of modern service and infrastructure when complete. As part of the program, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and CTA have been analyzing proposed improvements to the line. Phase One of the RPM Program includes the Red-Purple Bypass Project and the Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project. Within the RPM corridor, Phase One also includes corridor signal and other interim track improvements, which are not anticipated to have any significant environmental impacts. CTA is developing preliminary designs for these interdependent projects, while each undergoes separate environmental review. This Environmental Assessment (EA) covers the Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project. Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project The Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project would include reconstruction of approximately 1.3 miles of the existing rail line from Leland Avenue on the south to near Ardmore Avenue on the north. The four stations (Lawrence, Argyle, Berwyn, and Bryn Mawr) in this segment would be rebuilt, expanded, and modernized, while adding elevators that provide access for people with disabilities and improve convenience for the elderly and riders with carts, strollers, and bags. The proposed project would increase passenger capacity and station access along the corridor, expand platforms and stairways, and replace and modernize crumbling embankment walls and bridge structures. In 2014, over 5 million transit trips began at these stations. Despite recent station improvements, the main support structures, which were built over 90 years ago, are outdated and have never been replaced. The proposed improvements would modernize the infrastructure and also allow CTA to accommodate more riders, including riders with disabilities.

In the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), Congress established a comprehensive program to preserve the historical and cultural foundation of the Nation. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act requires federal agencies to consider the effects of projects they carry out, approve, or fund on historic properties. Section 106 review ensures that preservation values are factored into federal agency planning and decisions. Section 106 review requires federal agencies to gather information to decide which properties in the area that may be affected by the project are listed, or are eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic Places; determine how the historic properties might be affected; explore measures to avoid or reduce harm to historic properties and reach an agreement with the State Historic Preservation Officer on such measures to resolve any adverse effects. 3 II.

  • June 2020 Project Management Oversight Report
    Project Management Oversight June 2020 REPORT ON PROJECT MANAGEMENT OVERSIGHT – JUNE 2020 Executive Summary This semi‐annual Report on Project Management Oversight details Service Board efforts in implementing their capital programs. Included are details on all state‐funded projects, regardless of budget, and all systemwide projects with budgets of $10 million or more, regardless of funding source. Information in this report was collected by direct interviews, project meetings, and documented submissions from Service Board project management teams. The RTA’s 2018‐2023 Regional Transit Strategic Plan, Invest in Transit, highlights $30 billion of projects that are needed to maintain and modernize the region’s transit network. To maintain and preserve the current system in a State of Good Repair (SGR), as well as address the backlog of deferred SGR projects, requires a capital investment of $2 to $3 billion per year. The Rebuild Illinois funding is planned to expedite overdue repair and replacement projects, reduce the backlog of deferred improvements, and move the system toward a state of good repair. It nearly doubles the previous five‐year regional capital program of $4.3 billion. The new funds enable real progress on the state of good repair, by allowing improvements and in some cases replace aging system assets. Due to the current events, there is a level of uncertainty around the PAYGO and State Bond funding, which is dependent on revenues that may not reach the previously projected levels in the current economy. At this time the Service Boards are continuing with the implementation of their capital programs and working through the grant application process for the Rebuild Illinois funding.

    4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour October 20, 2002 Presented By: Chicago-L.org 4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour Guide Union Loop When the tour begins at Quincy station downtown, you will find yourself on the old Union Elevated Railroad, commonly known as "the Loop." The only man who could accomplish the difficult task of bringing a common downtown terminal to the Chicago elevated rapid transit system, which used to end at a separate terminal for each company, was Charles Tyson Yerkes. He had enough political deftness and power to convince store owners to sign consent forms allowing construction of the overhead structures on their streets (although alley routes were briefly contemplated). Though it was difficult — two segments had to be obtained under the names of existing "L" companies while for the two other legs, two companies, the Union Elevated Railroad and the Union Consolidated Elevated Railroad, had to be created — Yerkes managed to coordinate it all. As can be imagined from its piecemeal The construction of the Loop through downtown, seen here look- method of obtaining of leases, the Union Loop (referred ing west at Lake and Wabash circa 1894, was a major construction to simply as "the Loop" today) opened in pieces, starting project.

To maintain and preserve the current system in a State of Good Repair (SGR), as well as address the backlog of deferred SGR projects, requires a capital investment of $2 to $3 billion per year. After nearly a decade without a State of Illinois capital program, transit in the RTA region will get a much‐needed infusion from the Rebuild Illinois bill passed on June 1, 2019 by the General Assembly. The RTA is looking forward to the implementation of this new state capital plan however there is a concern that the proposed funding for transit does not meet the current needs as identified in “Invest in Transit.” The 55 projects detailed in this report together represent $5,712,260,030 worth of construction, maintenance, and procurement. Many of these projects address outstanding capital needs, while others are directed toward compliance with federal requirements or enhancing customer experience, safety, and security.

  • Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project: Start of Stage a Construction
    Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project: Start of Stage A Construction Town Hall audience questions from March 2&4, 2021* meetings General questions Q. What does this project cost and how is it funded? A. The $2.1 billion RPM Phase One project is funded through a combination of federal and local funds including: $957 in federal Core Capacity funds (FTA); a federal $125 million Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) grant from the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP); $622 million in Transit TIF (tax-increment financing) funds from the City of Chicago; and CTA financing. Q. Are updates and notices available in languages other than English? A. Yes. We regularly provide subtitled recordings of past community meetings in Chinese, Spanish and Vietnamese, as well as translated flyers distributed to local community organizations. Additionally, we offer live translation services for public meetings upon request. Q. When will the block-by-block meetings happen? A. They will be scheduled for April 2021. We will notify the public when the dates are finalized. Q. When will the project start? A. Stage A construction is expected to begin Spring 2021. Once construction schedules are finalized, we will notify the public in advance of important construction start dates. Station design/station and track construction Q. Why won’t you have temporary stations at Lawrence and Berwyn? A. There is not enough space available to build temporary stations at those locations, unfortunately. Passengers who normally board at Lawrence can use Wilson or Argyle stations, which are each a quarter mile away and connected via the #36 Broadway bus, and Berwyn customers can use the Bryn Mawr or Argyle stations.
