North Lake Shore Drive Phase I Study * * * D R A F T * * * 1.0 Purpose of and Need for Action The North Lake Shore Drive (NLSD) study corridor extends approximately seven miles from Grand Avenue to Hollywood Avenue. See Exhibits 1 and 2 in Appendix A. The corridor is comprised of the eight-lane “Outer Drive“ boulevard and the parallel two to four-lane “Inner Drive” local access roadway that is variously named North Lake Shore Drive, Sheridan Road and Marine Drive. The Outer Drive is designated as US 41 from the south study limit to Foster Avenue, where the US route designation continues west on Foster. The Outer Drive between Foster Avenue and the northern terminus at Hollywood Avenue is an unmarked State route. The Outer Drive is on the National Highway System which consists of roadways that are important to the nation’s economy, defense and mobility. North Lake Shore Drive is located primarily within Lincoln Park which is a 1,200-acre regional park dating back to 1860 that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Since its inception, NLSD has been a heavily used transportation artery in the lakefront corridor and it has evolved into an important multi- modal facility. It is a major north-south corridor through the city as it provides regional connectivity between the north and south suburbs as well as a link to the central business district. Today, the corridor carries as many as 161,000 cars per day as well as 970 Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) buses with 69,000 passengers per day along the Inner and/or the Outer Drives as shown on Exhibits 3 and 4 in Appendix A.

Bulldog Days 2020 Travel Information
Bulldog Days 2020 Travel Information We look forward to welcoming you to Yale and New Haven for Bulldog Days (April 20-22). New Haven is easily reached by air, train, car, or bus. For visitors traveling by air, Bradley Airport in Hartford is often the most convenient option, with a 50- 60 minute shuttle ride (reserve in advance) directly to Yale’s campus. Visitors arriving in New York City airports can connect directly to Yale’s campus by shuttle (reserve in advance) or to New Haven’s Union Station by train from Manhattan or Newark Airport. New Haven’s regional airport has several flights daily to and from Philadelphia on American Airlines, with taxi service available to campus. For those traveling within the northeast corridor, we recommend traveling by train to New Haven Union Station, where a free Bulldog Days shuttle is available to and from campus. As in any busy city, street parking in New Haven can be challenging. Long-term parking is available at all New Haven hotels and in private lots. A list of garages is available at https://your.yale.edu/ community/getting-around-yale/parking. For more information, visit to.yale.edu. For a campus map, visit www.yale.edu/map.
