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.

Project Details
Description
The purpose of this project is to upgrade to Hastus Version 2022 (or later) to ensure bus and rail scheduling utilizes the advanced scheduling tools Hastus provides to provide 24/7 transit service to CTA riders. This scheduling software utilizes customized rules based on CTA's union rules and also current transit industry trends. Target October 2022 to have hardware in place and start software upgrade project. The current Hastus contract with vendor GIRO requires CTA to begin the update project in Oct 2022 by providing a notice to proceed order in Q4 2022. Delays may result in change orders by the vendor. The CTA uses Hastus software to optimize the efficiency of bus and rail vehicle and crew schedules. Hastus software has been the agency’s exclusive transit scheduling tool since 1999 and CTA has been upgrading its Hastus version every 4-5 years to keep up with the industry trends and improved practices. Hastus is used for bus schedule changes four times annually, and for rail schedule changes, twice annually. In addition, Hastus is used to generate supplemental schedules associated with school trips and special events. Hastus provides critical interfaces for CTA’s operations, bidding - TOPSsystem, Customer Timetables, Clever works and on other budget functions for external stakeholders. Over the course of the 20 years with Hastus, CTA has made significant investments in customizations with each new version and intends to upgrade to the latest version in 2022 to take advantages of the better algorithms and industry trends available at that time.

While major overhaul work is performed on a mid-life cycle basis, additional focused maintenance work is required at certain intervals, outside of the mid-life overhaul, during the life of buses. When certain maintenance tasks are needed to repair or replace, before it reaches its end of useful life and failing with an increased frequency, specific component campaign work is conducted.

Life Extending Overhaul - Up to 430 Standard (1000 Series) - This project will overhaul the engine and other major sub-components to provide the minimal amount of work necessary to keep the fleet going. By end of FY2020 630 buses will have met their estimated 12 year life expectancy. This extension would extend the bus life by four years. The life extension for the 40 foot 1000-1629 New Flyer Bus is essential to keeping a majority of the CTA fleet running in optimal condition. The current fleet of 40 foot NF buses is over 1000 buses. This project is essential to meet availability requirements for CTA. These buses were purchased in 2006-2007 and this life extension is essential to maintaining peak availability requirements at all 7 bus garages.
