Great question for CDOT.
Chicago 🏳️⚧️🌱DC has added 23 miles of bus lanes in the last few years, why can't we do this???
I think it’s important for the public to know that this is the entirety of who was in the room to approve the NITA board appointments.
SideStreetsAlvarez passes. Barclay passes (Vasquez as only no). Mondero passes. Jenkins passes. Atkins passes. They will go to the full city council.
“Some of this is outside the TIF and would require additional funding” Y’all lol this plan is barely even half baked.

"There's no longer a catalyst as there was with the DPI" Transit *is* a catalyst, number one. But they ARE bringing in 22,000 people for games, and proposing THOUSANDS of new residents in the future.
kyle tear down that highway lucas 🏳️🌈It's really incredible that since 2019 we've gone from The 78 definitely needs additional transit access, to Related still proposing public subsidy but claiming that the site is "adequately transit-served."
