What an extended Red Line could mean for Chicago’s Far South Side
The CTA is set to receive $2 billion in federal funds to help complete a 5.6-mile extension of the Red Line past 95th Street.
The $3.7 billion project — 50 years in the making — has reached what transit officials call “the final phase” of the federal funding process. When complete, the Red Line will include four new stops, including a new terminus at 130th Street near Altgeld Gardens.
Reset checks in with community leaders from the far South Side about the potential positive impacts of connecting their neighborhoods to the El system.
