Bordering Chicago on the shores of Lake Michigan, Evanston is the city where Chicago and the North Shore meet. This 24/7 Wall St. ranked Evanston #5 means Evanston is accessible to decision makers who live in the North Shore and can access the Property from Sheridan Road or in “America’s Best Cities to Live In” in 2014 Ridge Avenue within minutes of leaving their driveways. This also means that Evanston is accessible to millennial labor from the CBD via the CTA Purple Line or Metra, which both stop at the Davis Station less than a block away from 1007 Church. Evanston’s reputation also goes beyond just its relative location. It is also known for its walkable urbanity, phenomenal restaurants and Ranked “Top 10 Best Downtowns” retail stores; access to public transportation; pro-business attitude; strong commitment towards public parks and recreation; by Livability.com in 2015 cultural offerings such as museums, theaters and galleries; and for being home to world-renowned Northwestern University.

    4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour October 20, 2002 Presented By: Chicago-L.org 4th Annual Historic “L” Station Tour Guide Union Loop When the tour begins at Quincy station downtown, you will find yourself on the old Union Elevated Railroad, commonly known as "the Loop." The only man who could accomplish the difficult task of bringing a common downtown terminal to the Chicago elevated rapid transit system, which used to end at a separate terminal for each company, was Charles Tyson Yerkes. He had enough political deftness and power to convince store owners to sign consent forms allowing construction of the overhead structures on their streets (although alley routes were briefly contemplated). Though it was difficult — two segments had to be obtained under the names of existing "L" companies while for the two other legs, two companies, the Union Elevated Railroad and the Union Consolidated Elevated Railroad, had to be created — Yerkes managed to coordinate it all. As can be imagined from its piecemeal The construction of the Loop through downtown, seen here look- method of obtaining of leases, the Union Loop (referred ing west at Lake and Wabash circa 1894, was a major construction to simply as "the Loop" today) opened in pieces, starting project.

    2 YEARS OF PLANNINGO DESIGN BY TRANSIT Community 2018 Planning Program Implementation Report 2018 COMMUNITY PLANNING PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION REPORT WE ARE THE RTA The Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) is the unit of local government charged with financial oversight, funding, and regional transit planning for the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), Metra, and Pace bus and Pace’s Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Paratransit Service. The RTA system serves two million riders each weekday with 145 CTA rail stations, 240 Metra commuter rail stations, 350 bus routes, with a combined 7,200 transit route miles throughout Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry, and Will Counties of northeastern Illinois. Multi-modal connections at Evanston’s Davis Street station The RTA reviews, adopts and monitors the annual budgets, two-year financial plans and five-year capital programs of CTA, Metra, Pace and ADA Paratransit to ensure they are balanced and consistent with long-range plans. The RTA’s Project Management Oversight program, oversees capital construction projects, ensuring they are on schedule and within budget. The RTA provides rider services, including travel-planning assistance, travel training, and also manages the eligibility program for individuals with disabilities and administers the Reduced Fare and Ride Free program for seniors and people with disabilities. The RTA performs periodic financial, operational performance and safety oversight audits of CTA, Metra, and Pace. The RTA also helps fund transit signal priority technology to keep buses operating more efficiently and provides interagency signage to assist riders in making transfer connections between buses and trains. In addition to these important activities, the RTA also offers two programs that add localized value throughout the region by providing funding and technical assistance to local governments.

  • Regional Ridership Report
    0 2012 Regional Ridership Report CONTENTS Executive Summary……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….2 Regional Economic Outlook………………….……………………………………………………………………………………………….4 Regional Ridership Summary……………………………………………………………………………………………………………....11 CTA Ridership Results………………………………………………………………………………………………………………14 Metra Ridership Results……………………………………………………………………………………………………………32 Pace Ridership Results……………………………………………………………………………………………………………..40 Pace ADA Paratransit Ridership Results…………………………………………………………………………………..48 Fare History…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..49 1 2012 Regional Ridership Report EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report provides analysis of Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) system ridership over the five-year period between 2008 and 2012. This period was marked by a significant period of economic recession that began in 2008 and ended in mid-2009. Economic recovery since then has been modest and as of 2012, employment and job growth had yet to return to pre- recession levels. The recession negatively impacted transit operations on the RTA system and forced the Service Boards (CTA, Metra, and Pace) to consider fare increases and service cuts. CTA, Pace Suburban Service, and Pace ADA Paratransit implemented fare increases in 2009. Metra implemented fare adjustments in 2010 and a significant fare increase in 2012 to bring fares in line with inflationary cost increases. In addition, CTA and Pace both cut service in 2010, with CTA reducing service frequencies, shortening service hours, and eliminating nine express bus routes, and Pace eliminating $1.5 million worth of service. These fare increases and service cuts, together with significant job loss in the region, combined to produce negative ridership results on the RTA system in 2009 and 2010. After two years of ridership loss, the regional economy began to improve in 2011, along with ridership, and these positive trends continued into 2012. A complete history of Service Board fare increases from 2000 to 2012 is included in the final chapter of this report.

  • The Impact of Automated Transit, Pedestrian, and Bicycling Facilities on Urban Travel Patterns
    The Exploratory Advanced Research Program The Impact of Automated Transit, Pedestrian, and Bicycling Facilities on Urban Travel Patterns SUMMARY REPORT Foreword Full usage of rapid transit systems that serve major urban areas can reduce road congestion and greenhouse gas emissions. One obstacle to greater use of available rapid transit systems is the distance between the rapid transit station and the traveler’s origin or destination, termed the last-mile problem. To address the last-mile problem, the investigators of this research project, sponsored by the Federal Highway Administration’s Exploratory Advanced Research Program, asked whether the use of rapid transit might be increased by implementing an automated, high-frequency community shuttle service to the transit station and improving urban design near the stations to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists. The investigators surveyed residents of four metropolitan Chicago neighborhoods, all served by rapid transit but differing in levels of population density and affluence. By drawing on the survey data and by using agent- and activity-based modeling developed by the research team, the investigators found that a significant shift of commuters from automobiles to rapid transit might be achieved with implementation of the potential shuttle service and design improvements. The investigators also explored how percep- tions of cost, safety, and time affect travelers’ choice of mode. Replication of this study, validation of its forecasts, and refinement of the research models are now needed to understand significant shifts in travel and mode choice. Although the deployment of automated vehicles is approaching technological feasibility, research is also needed to understand and address asso- ciated public policy and institutional issues, particularly with regard to public transit applications.

E-mail: [email protected]. Advertising and Ethics 1 Abstract Home to the United States' second-largest public transportation system, Chicago has a long history with economic, educational, and racial disparities amongst its 77 neighborhoods. Through content analysis, this study examines and categorizes 1,048 advertisements by their community demographics such as education, income, and race, to examine theme variance within the context of residential segregation on Chicago's rapid transit rail system. Keywords: advertising, ethics, outdoor advertising, residential segregation, marketing and society, Maslow’s Hierarchy, rapid transit Advertising and Ethics 2 Advertising and Ethics: Theme and Community Segregation on Chicago’s Rapid Transit System In The Current State of Advertising Ethics: Industry and Academic Perspectives, Minette E. Drumwright and Patrick E. Murphy’s research centers around the disconnect between industry and academy in terms of the approach towards advertising ethics. From an academic position, there has been controversy in the industry's handling the social communication power that comes with advertisement creation. Some scholars, like Jerry Kirkpatrick, believe that Randian theory is the underlying foundation that drives manipulation, deception, and coercion through advertising business decisions.
