    Project Scope Why Is This Work Necessary? How Will This Benefit Red Line Riders?

    Red Line South Track Renewal project Cermak-Chinatown to 95th Street Spring/Summer 2013 CTA is planning to rebuild the South Red Line from just north of Cermak-Chinatown to 95th Street. The work will benefit Red Line riders for decades to come—through faster travel times, increased reliability, and spruced-up stations with a variety of improvements. As part of the project, in Spring/Summer 2013 the Red Line will be completely closed from Roosevelt Road to 95th Street for five months. CTA will offer several alternative travel options during this closure to minimize the impact on customers as much as possible (see other side of this page). Cermak- Faster travel times Better reliability Improved stations Chinatown Project scope CTA will replace all of the ties, rails, third rails, drainage system and ballast (the stone material that holds the ties in place) in the Red Line right of way. Additionally, all nine stations along the Dan Ryan Branch will be improved, from basic enhancements like new paint and better lighting Sox-35th to additional customer amenities, like new benches and bike racks. New elevators will be installed at the Garfield, 63rd and 87th Street stations—making the entire South Red Line fully accessible. 47th Garfield Why is this work necessary? The Dan Ryan Branch was built in 1969, when Richard Nixon was in the White House, a gallon 63rd of gas cost 35 cents and Gale Sayers won the NFL rush- ing title.

    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.

Garc´ıa,PhD.2 1Graduate Research Assistant 2Professor and Director, Ven Te Chow Hydrosystems Laboratory July 2014 Executive Summary Purpose and Scope In the Chicago Area Waterways (CAWS) drainage area, there are 255 Combined Sewer Outfalls (CSO) owned by the City of Chicago, the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRDGC), and surrounding municipalities. Chicago-area CSOs discharging to the CAWS currently drain away from Lake Michigan during most wet weather conditions. Consequently, the majority of CSO events in the Chicago metropolitan area do not affect Lake Michigan. However, the gates at the waterway controlling works that separate the Chicago-area waters and Lake Michigan are opened during certain heavy rainfall events in order to prevent local flooding. At the same time, there is a growing interest in controlling the potential migration of invasive species towards the Great Lakes.

    Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project: Start of Stage a Construction

    Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project: Start of Stage A Construction Town Hall audience questions from March 2&4, 2021* meetings General questions Q. What does this project cost and how is it funded? A. The $2.1 billion RPM Phase One project is funded through a combination of federal and local funds including: $957 in federal Core Capacity funds (FTA); a federal $125 million Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) grant from the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP); $622 million in Transit TIF (tax-increment financing) funds from the City of Chicago; and CTA financing. Q. Are updates and notices available in languages other than English? A. Yes. We regularly provide subtitled recordings of past community meetings in Chinese, Spanish and Vietnamese, as well as translated flyers distributed to local community organizations. Additionally, we offer live translation services for public meetings upon request. Q. When will the block-by-block meetings happen? A. They will be scheduled for April 2021. 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. Once construction schedules are finalized, we will notify the public in advance of important construction start dates. Station design/station and track construction Q. Why won’t you have temporary stations at Lawrence and Berwyn? A. There is not enough space available to build temporary stations at those locations, unfortunately. 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.
