  • Economic Perspectives on Benefits and Costs of the CTA Red and Purple Modernization Project
    Chaddick Institute Technical Briefing May 1, 2014 Economic Perspectives on Benefits and Costs of the CTA Red and Purple Modernization Project Joseph P. Schwieterman and Laurence F. Audenaerd* This paper provides a research perspective on the Red and Purple Modernization (RPM) Project under consideration by the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA). The paper is based on recent literature on the likely benefits and costs of capital investments in transit projects within the Chicago region. The objective is to present an initial assessment of the economic ramifications associated with the proposed improvements to the 9.6-mile Red/Purple Line segment between the Belmont and Linden stations. While additional analyses are needed to understand the full range of benefits and costs of the project, the strong performance and apparent growth potential of this corridor suggests that investments would generate significant benefits. RPM Project Overview The targeted section of the Red/Purple Line route, running roughly parallel to the Lake Michigan shoreline, is more than 90 years old and encompasses 21 stations in Chicago, Evanston, and Wilmette. The line is equipped with four tracks that extend most of the distance between Belmont and Howard Street Station—a segment jointly used by Red and Purple Line trains—and two tracks between Howard and Linden used solely by Purple Line trains. Three alternatives (not including a “Continued Deterioration” Alternative) are under consideration as of publication of this document. The Basic Alternative, costing an estimated $3 billion, would bring the corridor into a state of good repair and provide general improvements to reliability and service quality over a 20-year period.

Introduction This document provides the basis for a determination by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT), Federal Transit Administration (FTA), of a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) for the Red‐Purple Bypass Project. This determination is made in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, 42 United States Code (U.S.C.) § 4332(2)(c); FTA’s implementing procedures (23 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] § 771.121); Section 4(f) of the USDOT Act of 1966, 49 U.S.C. § 303; and the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, 54 U.S.C. § 300101 et seq. FTA, as the federal lead agency, and Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), as the local project sponsor, jointly prepared the Environmental Assessment (EA) and Section 4(f) Evaluation to describe potential impacts on the human and natural environment and historic integrity that may result from the Red‐Purple Bypass Project on the CTA Red and Purple lines. The EA was prepared pursuant to 23 CFR § 771.119 and issued by FTA on May 19, 2015. This FONSI is prepared by FTA pursuant to 23 CFR § 771.121., and incorporates by reference the EA and other cited documentation. B. Existing Conditions Figure 1 is a map of the project limits. The Red‐Purple Bypass Project area is approximately 5 miles north of downtown Chicago, in the Lakeview community area. The project area, just north of Belmont station, includes the existing junction where three CTA rail lines, the Red, Purple, and Brown lines, converge at an existing flat junction (known as Clark Junction), mainline Red and Purple line tracks extend north to Newport and Cornelia Avenues, and the Brown Line branch extends west to approximately Seminary Avenue.
