The Chicago Transit Authority will temporarily close the California Blue Line station for 42 days to allow crews to perform major renovations as part of the Your New Blue modernization program for the O’Hare branch of the Blue Line. The station is scheduled to re-open October 16.
Among the benefits of the 4-year, USD 492mln project are related to modernized stations to better meet the needs of riders in 2014 and beyond and faster service-this will save passengers 10 minutes between downtown and O’Hare. The investment is also expected to generate 1,300 new jobs during construction.
