As Chicago-area public transit faces possible cuts, Philadelphia’s experience could serve as a warning for lawmakers in Illinois who need to figure out a funding solution to cover a multi-million budget hole and potential 40% cut to CTA, Metra and Pace service. trib.al/gMAfYOv

How could the transit 'fiscal cliff' play out in Chicago? Philadelphia cuts offer clues
Philadelphia's experience could serve as a warning for lawmakers in Illinois who need to figure out a funding solution to cover a multi-million budget hole and potential 40% cut to bus and rail service to the Chicago Transit Authority, Metra commuter rail and Pace Bus.

Why Is It So Expensive To Build Affordable Housing In Chicago?
One recent West Side development clocked in at $884,000 per unit. While the city says it's working to address red tape that drives up expenses, advocates say more must be done to rein in "crazy" costs...

first time transferring from union station to the blue line. i’d say the understandability was 7/10. the signage was really good considering the union station construction, i bet I would give it an 8.5 out of 10 once the construction is done

✅ HUGE WIN: Today, Chicago City Council voted unanimously via voice vote to eliminate parking minimums adjacent to CTA and Metra rail and bus lines! This is a victory for more affordable transit oriented development and safer streets citywide!

Chicago City Council can lead where the Illinois legislature could not yesterday: - remove parking mandates more fully, to increase the housing supply and lower development costs [1] - legalize more housing near transit [2] - legalize ADUs across the city [1]
