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.

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.

  • LUCAS CULTURAL ARTS MUSEUM MAYOR’S TASK FORCE REPORT | CHICAGO May 16, 2014
    THE LUCAS CULTURAL ARTS MUSEUM MAYOR’S TASK FORCE REPORT | CHICAGO May 16, 2014 Mayor Rahm Emanuel City Hall - 121 N LaSalle St. Chicago, IL 60602 Dear Mayor Emanuel, As co-chairs of the Lucas Cultural Arts Museum Site Selection Task Force, we are delighted to provide you with our report and recommendation for a site for the Lucas Cultural Arts Museum. The response from Chicagoans to this opportunity has been tremendous. After considering more than 50 sites, discussing comments from our public forum and website, reviewing input from more than 300 students, and examining data from myriad sources, we are thrilled to recommend a site we believe not only meets the criteria you set out but also goes beyond to position the Museum as a new jewel in Chicago’s crown of iconic sites. Our recommendation offers to transform existing parking lots into a place where students, families, residents, and visitors from around our region and across the globe can learn together, enjoy nature, and be inspired. Speaking for all Task Force members, we were both honored to be asked to serve on this Task Force and a bit awed by your charge to us. The vision set forth by George Lucas is bold, and the stakes for Chicago are equally high. Chicago has a unique combination of attributes that sets it apart from other cities—a history of cultural vitality and groundbreaking arts, a tradition of achieving goals that once seemed impossible, a legacy of coming together around grand opportunities, and not least of all, a setting unrivaled in its natural and man-made beauty.

  • Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Station-By-Station Meeting FAQ from May 3-6, 2021
    Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Station-by-Station Meeting FAQ from May 3-6, 2021 The CTA held station-by-station meetings to provide the public with an update of upcoming construction activities for the Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project, which is a part of the Red and Purple Modernization (RPM) Phase One project. Below is a summary of the questions and answers discussed in each of the meetings. Bryn Mawr station Q. How long will Bryn Mawr station be under construction and will it be closed at any point? A. The Bryn Mawr station will close on May 16, 2021, but you will still be able to access the Red Line from the new Bryn Mawr temporary station entrances. During Stage A construction (2021-late 2022), there will be a separate entrance for Howard, or northbound, service located on Bryn Mawr. 95th-bound, or southbound, service will use the entrance on Broadway. During Stage B (late 2022- 2024), there will be southbound-only access via a temporary entrance on Bryn Mawr. The new station will open by the end of 2024. Q. When will the temporary station open and will the temporary stations be ADA accessible? The temporary station will open May 16, 2021. It will not be ADA accessible but the new permanent station, opening in 2024, will have both elevator and escalator access. Q. Given the tracks are expanding and getting wider, are there plans for some type of sound barrier? A. Yes, the new track structure will have noise barriers. Q. Is construction working from north to south? A.
