Webinar: Crossrail Chicago – The Foundation for a Modern Travel Network
CrossRail Chicago is the Alliance’s proposal to connect and upgrade existing Metra lines to create an electrified, passenger-dedicated mainline through the city. This link would provide intercity train service to key locations in downtown, as well as O’Hare International Airport. CrossRail Chicago would span the metro area with high-capacity, passenger-focused rail lines, and form the core of a Midwest high-speed rail network. Alliance executive director Rick Harnish will explain CrossRail Chicago, and what needs to happen at the state and federal level to make it a reality.
