  • Pace & CTA Service Coordination Plan Pace Service Changes
    Pace & CTA Service Coordination Plan Pace and the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) have been working together to improve service coordination and to reduce service duplication in corridors where both transit agencies operate service. As part of the CTA’s Crowding Reduction Plan, the CTA has decided to eliminate or coordinate service in several corridors where Pace also provides service. As a result, Pace will implement or is proposing to implement service changes in mid-December 2012 on a number of routes. Additionally, alternative service is available on Pace in several of the corridors where the CTA has decided to discontinue or modify CTA bus routes. Pace Service Changes Effective Mid-December 2012 Route 270 Milwaukee Avenue The CTA has decided to eliminate Route 56A North Milwaukee which operates weekday service between the CTA Blue Line Jefferson Park Transit Center and Devon/Avondale during rush hours and Milwaukee/Imlay at all other times. As an alternative, Route 56A customers can use Pace Route 270 which operates daily service along Milwaukee Avenue between the CTA Blue Line Jefferson Park Transit Center and Golf Mill. Certain weekday trips on Route 270 serve AON Service Corporation and certain weekday and Saturday trips are extended to Glenbrook Hospital. Pace will modify its weekday rush hour stop pattern on Route 270 so that customers will be able to board and exit the bus in both directions when traveling between the CTA Blue Line Jefferson Park Transit Center and Milwaukee/Devon during rush hours. It should be noted that Route 270 will continue to only stop at posted bus stop signs.

  • 3. Existing Transportation System
    3. Existing Transportation System An important prerequisite to transportation planning is an understanding of the components and operations of the existing transportation system. This section describes the roadway, transit, freight, and bicycle and pedestrian systems in the study area. Each system component and its travel demand, desire, and characteristics is discussed below. 3.1 Existing Roadway System The roadway system in the study area consists of an extensive network of roads that serve various trips. The system includes facilities with different functional classifications, each with a unique intended function. This subsection describes the roadway transportation system in the study area and summarizes its basic characteristics. 3.1.1 Functional Classification Creation of a traffic circulation system on a roadway network requires careful planning of the intended purpose and required design characteristics of each link in the system. The purpose of having a functionally classified highway system is to recognize existing travel patterns, and to reinforce and control them so that there is some established order of traffic flow. Roadways vary in width, design, and function. Exhibit 3-1 depicts the relationship between the access and mobility functions of streets and highways. The highest classification (freeways) is intended solely for traffic movement and does not provide access to adjoining land uses except at interchanges. The lowest category (local streets) allows unrestricted access and is not intended to accommodate through traffic. The roadway designations referred to in this study are based on the following functional classification categories described in IDOT’s Illinois Roadway Information System: • Freeway—The freeway system consists of a connected network of continuous routes that are access controlled and constructed for higher design speeds.

  • Des Plaines Oakton Street Metra Station Feasibility Study
    STATION 1 DES PLAINES OAKTON STREET METRA STATION FEASIBILITY STUDY The City of Des Plaines has partnered with AECOM and The Lakota Group to prepare a feasibility study for a potential new North Central Service Line (NCS) station in the area around Mannheim Road and Oakton Street. While both the Union Pacific Northwest (UP-NW) and NCS lines run through Des Plaines, only the UP-NW has stations at Cumberland and Downtown Des Plaines. The City believes that a new commuter rail station in this area could: » Serve as a catalyst for transit-oriented development and redevelopment of vacant parcels in the area. » Add a much needed public transportation option in this area where only 2.5% of workers use public transportation and 75% of workers get to work in single-occupant vehicles. » Provide multi-modal connectivity to the new Pace PULSE Dempster Line. » Offer an alternative way to access O’Hare Airport. PROJECT BACKGROUND + INTENT The NCS Line that currently runs through Des Plaines was once a part of the Wisconsin Railroad Line and at one point had two stations in Des Plaines. According to the Cook County Chronicle, these stations were closed in 1930 and 1965 respectively, before Metra opened the NCS line. When Metra began operations on the NCS line, it reopened many previous stations, but the Des Plaines stations were not included. The City of Des Plaines has been interested in adding a station on the NCS line for several years, and this study is the first step for Metra to determine if a station at this location is feasible.

  • Des Plaines Vulnerability Assessment
    Des Plaines Vulnerability Assessment Introduction Climate vulnerability refers to the degree to which a community is exposed to climate change, is sensitive to its impacts, and is able to adapt to those impacts.1 This assessment explores climate- related hazards affecting the City of Des Plaines, as well as the community’s projected future exposure and adaptive capacity. The vulnerabilities identified in this report will be integrated into the Des Plaines Comprehensive Plan, which will identify a wide range of strategies for local implementers. The goal of the grant is to assist communities to incorporate local climate science into community planning. CMAP and the APA thought Des Plaines would benefit by being one of five local pilot communities due to timing in preparing the new Comprehensive Plan. The project partners intend to develop, test, and refine a data-driven framework for climate-smart comprehensive and capital infrastructure plans. An outcome of the project might be the development of long-term options in mitigating natural hazards such as flooding through better land use planning. This assessment was developed in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the American Planning Association (APA), and Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant, with the goal of identifying new ways to integrate climate science into the local planning process. The methodology and data sources used to develop this analysis will be compiled by the American Planning Association and integrated into a guidebook for local planners. This report adds to the conversation about climate resilience, an emerging field in city planning. Key Findings Des Plaines’ residential neighborhoods are vulnerable to increased precipitation and flooding.
