December 2020 Project Management Oversight Report
Project Management Oversight December 2020 REPORT ON PROJECT MANAGEMENT OVERSIGHT – DECEMBER 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 funds enable real progress on the state of good repair, by allowing improvements and in some cases replace aging system assets. Although this has been a difficult year due to operating funding shortfalls related to COVID‐19, the Service Boards are continuing with the implementation of their capital programs. This report includes, for the first time, 13 Rebuild Illinois projects representing $655 million in Rebuild Illinois funding. The 13 projects reported on have begun during this reporting period and have ongoing activities. -

Northwestern Housing Guide
Northwestern Housing Guide Northwestern University Evanston Campus (purple rectangle) City of Evanston The majority of student housing is divided into 4 regions in Evanston: (1) Sheridan Road and Ridge Ave. East-West and Emerson St. to Central St. South to North, (blue) (2) Near Downtown Evanston, (orange) (3) Oakton St. and Dempster St. (S-N), and Chicago Ave. and Ridge Ave. (E-W) & Hinman/Judson Ave. (yellow) (4) Central Street. (green) The red dots are the train stops of the purple line of the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) system. From south to north, South Blvd, Main, Dempster, Davis (downtown Evanston), Foster (nearest to South part of the campus), Noyes (nearest to Tech (Technological Institute) and North part of the campus), and Central. South of South Blvd is Howard station the last stop of the Purple Line and you can change to Red Line that goes to downtown Chicago. The Purple Line goes express to Chicago on weekdays during rush hour. As you move further away from campus the price of the apartment will go down within each housing area. The public transportation system is good. Studios near the university can be at the same price as a one-bedroom further away from the university. In-unit laundry is very difficult to find, and it will raise the price of the apartment. Most of the apartments building will have a laundry room. If you have a car, a parking space is about $50/month on average. This is in addition to the apartment rent. Many students find that they do not need a car because of public transportation system and Uber. -

In an era where daily changes in behavior, technology, and funding are creating transportation disruption, Sam Schwartz offers a forward-looking, yet pragmatic approach to sustainable mobility with unparalleled technical and problem-solving expertise. As city leaders increasingly aspire to re-envision their streets as places for more than just automobiles – while also working better for automobiles – Sam Schwartz has served as a frequent collaborator with those cities who are leading the charge, implementing the tremendous change that accompanies new leadership (Los Angeles and Seattle) or a new focus on transportation choices (Chicago and Grand Rapids). From our president, Samuel Schwartz’s book on the future of transportation, Street Smart, to the first-of- its-kind study to document best practices in shared-use mobility systems (such as Uber, carshare and bikeshare), to our collaboration on the FHWA Separated Bike Lane Planning and Design Guide, to our work helping Seattle DOT adapt its practices to an unknown future, we are leading the industry in understanding the trends that are poised to completely transform urban transportation.
