Thanks to the funding we received through the ‘Rebuild Illinois’ capital programme, we’re now able to unlock one more station and soon provide a fully accessible transit option for not only this West Side community, but for any of the millions who travel our rail system each year.” “The CTA has collaborated with Chicago’s disability community to pursue a vision of 100% accessibility for all customers. “This is another exciting step forward in our commitment to making the entire CTA rail system fully accessible,” said CTA President Dorval R. The Chicago Transit Board had approved the awarding of a $75.4 million contract and funding for this project had been sourced through Governor Pritzker’s ‘Rebuild Illinois ‘ Capital Plan. This station renovation is the latest project to advance as part of CTA’s All Stations Accessibility Program (ASAP).

The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) has announced that it will soon commence a major renovation of the Racine Blue Line station in order to make accessibility improvements, which includes the addition of a lift.
