  • Chicago Railway Blues Described As Heading for Dead End Without Change
    Chicago railway blues described as heading for dead end without change chicagocitywire.com /stories/511200565-chicago-railway-blues-described-as-heading-for-dead-end-without- change Caitlin Nordahl | Aug 31, 8/30/2017 2017 Chicago could end up being tossed off the beaten track if it doesn't get its tangled railways issues straightened out, the Better Government Association (BGA) warned recently. Experts say Windy City gridlock can account for a third of the total time it takes a freight train to cross the United States, and fixing Chicago’s 4,000 miles of rail track, along with other infrastructure maintenance projects, have been deferred to a breaking point, the BGA contends. It can take 26 to 30 hours to simply get through the area by rail, the group says. The piecemeal development of the track system created today's problems, as it was established to accommodate 30 freight railroads that once operated in the area. While that figure was consolidated to the six major railroads and two short-line railroads that now pass through Chicago, the crisscrossing tracks still accommodate 25 percent of the freight trains that move across the country, as well as 50 percent of the intermodal trains. According to the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning, approximately 1,300 freight and passenger trains move through the area every day, the BGA reports. The trains compete for position through choke points like the 75th Street corridor, a portion of track that stretches from Evergreen Park to the Dan Ryan Expressway. The corridor is a meeting point for four freight lines and two passenger lines, creating a bottleneck that is one of the worst in the nation.

    Nebraska Law Review Volume 38 | Issue 2 Article 4 1959 Control of Highway Access Frank M. Covey Jr. Northwestern University Law School Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/nlr Recommended Citation Frank M. Covey Jr., Control of Highway Access, 38 Neb. L. Rev. 407 (1959) Available at: https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/nlr/vol38/iss2/4 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Law, College of at DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. It has been accepted for inclusion in Nebraska Law Review by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. CONTROL OF HIGHWAY ACCESS Frank M. Covey, Jr.* State control of both public and private access is fast becom- ing a maxim of modern highway programming. Such control is not only an important feature of the Interstate Highway Program, but of other state highway construction programs as well. Under such programs, authorized by statute, it is no longer possible for the adjacent landowner to maintain highway access from any part of his property; no longer does every cross-road join the highway. This concept of control and limitation of access involves many legal problems of importance to the attorney. In the following article, the author does much to explain the origin and nature of access control, laying important stress upon the legal methods and problems involved. The Editors. I. INTRODUCTION-THE NEED FOR ACCESS CONTROL On September 13, 1899, in New York City, the country's first motor vehicle fatality was recorded. On December 22, 1951, fifty- two years and three months later, the millionth motor vehicle traffic death occurred.' In 1955 alone, 38,300 persons were killed (318 in Nebraska); 1,350,000 were injured; and the economic loss ran to over $4,500,000,000.2 If the present death rate of 6.4 deaths per 100,000,000 miles of traffic continues, the two millionth traffic victim will die before 1976, twenty years after the one millionth.

  • BMP Chapter 3: Bicycle Network Recommendations
    Chapter 3 Bellingham Bicycle Master Plan | Chapter 3: Bicycle Network Recommendations Chapter 3: Bicycle Network Recommendations Chapter 3 presents the recommended network of on-street bicycle facilities that will help Bellingham meet the goals of this Plan. It describes the methodology used to develop the proposed network and suggests facility types for each street segment in the network. This chapter also provides a prioritized list of recommendations to facilitate strategic and timely implementation of the Plan. Network Opportunities and Constraints The City of Bellingham street system presents both opportunities and constraints for developing an on- street, city-wide bicycle network that safely connects all major destinations for bicyclists of all skill levels. In areas of the City that have a traditional street grid pattern, such as Downtown, Fairhaven, and neighborhoods west of Interstate 5 (I-5), there are strong opportunities on local and arterial streets to develop a system of well-connected bicycle facilities. In newer sections of the City, particularly to the east and north of I-5, there are more dead-end streets and larger blocks, making it harder to develop an extensive network of bicycle facilities in these areas. Many of these areas with limited connectivity were built under the current land use and local, State, and federal environmental regulations, which are much more restrictive than in the past and can make street and trail construction - and associated environmental impact mitigation - very expensive. One of the most significant challenges for creating a connected bicycle network is I-5. There are currently eleven arterial streets that cross I-5 over a nine-mile stretch and many of these are intimidating to novice and intermediate bicyclists.
