The Chicago Express Loop
- joshlittle 8y agoNow if they’d resurrect the Circle line next it’d for sure win over even the most skeptical Chicagoans. https://www.transitchicago.com/planning/circle/ https://www.transitchicago.com/planning/circle/ - A former Chicagoan.

- bfrog 8y agoCircle lines would connect this city in new and wonderful ways certainly. The city has grown around it's transportation infrastructure and continues to do so everyday
- kevinslashslash 8y agoI really hope they change the name. Chicago already has a loop affectionally called "The Loop". This Boring system is really point to point anyway, it's just the skates don't stop or reverse at the stations, they make a u turn.
- castlegloom 8y agoI'll believe it when I see it. RIP Washington Station.
- duxup 8y ago>The fares are not finalized but will be less than half the typical price of taxi/ride-share services, though higher than the Blue Line. I hope so but man i'm skeptical... but awesome if they can do that.
- londons_explore 8y agoI wonder if "higher than the blue line" is a requirement? Have they been given permission to do this on the basis of not undercutting publicly funded services?
- duxup 8y agoMaybe, but I expect straight economics will do that too...
- lxmorj 8y agoThe blue line is $2.50 I believe...
- bfrog 8y agoLooks cool on paper but I think there's a lot of issues with things zooming around at 150 in a tunnel. Emergencies and breakdowns happen. Vandalism and crime happens. I welcome any solution that alleviates the nightmare that is the Kennedy expressway though.
