CTA Red Line extension project clears environmental review
Quote:
The Federal Transit Administration and the Federal Highway Administration last week published the Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)/Record of Decision (ROD) regarding the Chicago Transit Authority’s Red Line Extension project.
The milestone advances the project to the next step to begin construction on the extension, which would extend Chicago’s most-traveled rail line from the existing terminal at 95th Street to 130th Street, CTA officials said in a press release.
The 5.6-mile extension will include four new stations and a modernized, efficient rail-car storage yard and maintenance facility.
