CTA Kicks Off Work on Lawrence/Bryn Mawr Upgrades
The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) is beginning construction work for the Lawrence to Bryn Mawr Modernization Project (LBMM). The LBMM project is a major component of CTA’s Red and Purple Modernization (RPM) Phase One Project, the largest capital project in the transit agency’s history.
CTA is kicking off construction for the LBMM with preparatory or “pre-stage” trackwork between Thorndale and Montrose avenues. Pre-stage is the first of three stages to rebuild the Lawrence, Argyle, Berwyn and Bryn Mawr station. It includes work to prepare the tracks to maintain ‘L’ service while the new stations are being built, as well as to build temporary stations at Bryn Mawr and Argyle.
In terms of community impact, the authority anticipates periodic street, alley and parking lane closures, along with continuous weekend work into the spring. CTA will hold public meetings on the LBMM on Jan. 28 and 30.
Connect Industrial Midwest is coming to Rosemont, IL on March 4. For more information, or to register, click here.
