This project is proposed to bring the North Red and Purple Lines’ stations, track systems, and structures into a state of good repair from the track structure immediately north of Belmont station to the Linden terminal (9.5 miles). This project is one part of the
Your Red Program to extend and enhance the entire Red Line.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), CTA and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) have initiated the environmental review process for this project and will be preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS).
Public and agency input is important throughout all phases of project development. This site will keep you informed about the proposed project, the planning process, and opportunities for public input and participation.

As rumors swell of our Alderman Joe Moore of the 49th Ward shopping a seat as head of the IEPA (Illinois Environmental Protection Agency), I am reminded of Asbestos in the air and the IEPA investigation of one of Joe Moore's long-time campaign contributors.
