Project Description
Platform canopies and escalators will be replaced at Irving Park station on the O'Hare Blue Line. This project will address safety and state of good repair needs by replacing the worn and damaged platform
canopies at this station. Platform canopies that are in a state of disrepair allow water infiltration, which can cause damage to additional building materials and equipment and pose a safety risk to both
customers and employees. The scope of work for the station canopies includes the demolition and replacement of deteriorated canopy corrugated metal roofs, and repair and modification of the supporting
steel structure. Furthermore, escalators will be replaced at Irving Park Station.
