Capital programming is a core function of the RTA. RTA and the Service Boards have worked to articulate as well as advance a capital strategy for transit projects in the Chicagoland region.
Priority Projects have been identified by the Service Boards. These priority projects are updated on an annual basis. This page shows details about the funding for each priority project.
The 2024-2028 5-Year Regional Capital Program includes over 250 projects that are advancing many of these Priority Projects. The capital projects are shown in the table below, organized by Priority Project and can also be seen in a mapped form on the RTA Capital Projects Dashboard. Each project listing shows the amount of funding programmed in the 2024-2028 Regional Capital Program. Beginning with the 2024-2028 Capital Program, projects are evaluated based on 15 measures which were identified in the new Regional Transit Strategic Plan, Transit is the Answer. All projects in the 2024-2028 program show the detailed evaluations in this site.
The metrics include evaluations of Equity and Accessibility which are used in the performance-based allocation process. The region has committed to dedicating 20% of programmed funds to projects that fulfill the regional goals of improving equity and accessibility for 2025 and beyond as a part of the new performance-based capital allocation process
The Service Boards have met and exceeded the 20% goal for the 2025-2028 budget years.
Project Management Oversite (PMO) data is provided for projects that are being actively monitored by the PMO group. Data included current activities, start and end date and budget and schedule status. The following page has a full list of active PMO projects.
Paratransit Vehicles - Pace plans to purchase 298 replacement vehicles (22'-25' cutaway) including associated equipment (cameras, destination signs, etc.) and services (Buy America audit and inspections) for paratransit services.

Current Status
These buses will service DuPage, Kane, Lake, Will and Cook counties. Pace awarded a new contract in November 2020. The first order was for a quantity of 210 paratransit buses. Chassis availability has delayed production. As of May, Pace has received the 152 vehicles and the remaining are in the final stages of production and aiming to deliver all buses by end of 2023. The second order of paratransit buses are ongoing and are expected to be executed in Q4-2023 for the community vehicle program.

Design and construction of stations of the Pulse 95th Rapid Transit Line. The project corridor is approximately 12.4 miles in length and runs east-west between the CTA Red Line 95th/Dan Ryan Station in Chicago and Moraine Valley Community College in Palos Hills primarily routed along 95th Street, as well as several other roadways in Bridgeview, Chicago Ridge, Hickory Hills, and Palos Hills. The proposed line would include connections to other transit services including the CTA Red Line 95th/Dan Ryan Station and other CTA routes, other Pace bus routes, Metra Rock Island District Line Longwood Station, Metra Southwest Service, and Oak Lawn Patriot Station. As Pace’s third anticipated Pulse line, the 95th Street service will improve connectivity and increase transit service levels through higher frequencies, travel time savings, and station amenities. The Pulse 95th Street Line will connect to the Pulse Halsted Line, and eventually to the Pulse Harlem and Cicero Lines.

Project Details
Description
Pace is in need of a stand-alone storage solution and will construct a shed to store and secure up to 10tons of bulk rock salt that is used during the winter season. The construction of the shed will be within thefootprint of Pace's parcel. This shed will allow for accessible use with Pace's skidsteer to load rock saltonto the pickup trucks and distribute it on approximately more than 15,000 square yards of grounds(parking lots and driveways), in addition to sidewalks, in a safe and more efficient manner. CurrentlyPace purchases 50-pound bags of salt that have to be loaded manually which has become very unsafein term of personal injury risk and is very time consuming as it has to be loaded multiple times per day.
