Transit Funding is Coming Down to the Wire
Without funding approval soon, Metra and the entire Chicago region’s transit system will be devastated.
Metra will cut 40% of its trains,
Early morning and late evening Metra service will end.
How we get around our city won’t be the same.
And an opportunity to build a stronger region with regional rail will be lost.
With proper funding, there would be more trains more frequently, cutting wait times in half. There would be greater freedom.
The freedom to step outside and trust that the system will work – that a bus or train will be there.
The freedom to transform a city, connect a region, and bring us together.
