The study area was divided into three subdistricts: Mid South, Near West and Near North. General Recommendations: Ensure that residents of mixed-income communities have access to adequate retail and job opportunities, and safe and reliable public transportation; Maximize the significant investment in the Plan for Transformation by ensuring the creation of complete communities that reduce the cost of both housing and transportation for residents; Provide alternative transportation choices to residents in neighborhoods that are ideally located near the Chicago Central Business District; Create low-cost transportation options that provide an alternative to the personal automobile and its related, rising fuel costs. Specific Recommendations: Reestablish the Clybourn bus; Explore Chicago Avenue and Halsted Bus Rapid Transit opportunities; Improve signage and access to the North and Clybourn Red Line station; Pursue a new elevated Brown Line station at Division and Orleans with mixed use development; Improve the #11 Lincoln/Sedgwick weekend schedule; Consider Larrabee Street bus service; Improve passenger shelters at bus stops; Install improved and extra bike racks at Chicago, Sedgwick and North/Clybourn stations; Install intersection enhancements at Division/Clybourn; Improve pedestrian crossings at future transit stops; Improve streetscape environment in areas slated for retail development; Improve bike and pedestrian access by completing the street grid and adding bike lanes; Establish design elements that welcome visitors and residents; Cluster community facilities along Larrabee and Oak; Locate a commercial node on Clybourn from Ogden to Larrabee, at Division and Larrabee, and at Clybourn and Mohawk; Develop retail at Division and Halsted.

3 Halsted Triangle Plan Adopted by the Chicago Plan Commission November 2010 Community Areas: Near North Side Department of Zoning and Land Use Planning, Department of Transportation, Department of Community Development, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., Goodman Williams Group, Ross Barney Architects The Halsted Triangle Plan promotes increased multimodal connections with a key segment of the riverwalk and a link to the Bloomingdale Trail/606. The plan pulls together disparate elements of the neighborhood into a cohesive urban community of compatible uses, connections to the river and integration with the rest of Chicago. To do this, the plan builds on the community s existing proximity to transit and ongoing redevelopment efforts. General Recommendations: Promote connectivity; Support and create opportunities for development; Promote and support non-residential uses along the river; Provide the opportunity for a continuous riverwalk and a connecting non-vehicular path system; Create strong connections to and from the riverwalk; Manage traffic congestion; Develop a parking strategy; Create pedestrian-friendly streetscapes; Maintain current zoning; Encourage development that is compatible with the adjacent Goose Island Planned Manufacturing District; Establish architectural guidelines; Promote sustainable development practices; Develop a neighborhood way-finding system. Specific Recommendations: Protect and buffer the Goose Island Planned Manufacturing District from incompatible development; Retrofit corridors to better accommodate all modes of transportation and implement policies, programs and services to encourage travel by modes other than single-occupant autos; Improve faded, worn, missing and/or long crosswalks, narrow/inadequate sidewalks, limited pedestrian-level lighting and limited left-turn storage; Adopt a recommended street hierarchy; Make general street improvements, including widening sidewalks, installing bicycle lanes, allowing parallel parking on both sides and installing pedestrian countdown heads and push buttons; Construct fully functional alleys as redevelopment occurs; Improve transit service.

7 Ashland Bus Rapid Transit August 2012 Community Areas: North Center, Lakeview, Lincoln Park, Logan Square, West Town, Near West Side, Lower West Side, McKinley Park, New City, West Englewood, Auburn Gresham, Beverly Chicago Transit Authority (CTA), Chicago Department of Transportation, Department of Planning and Development, Federal Transit Administration Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is planned for 16 miles of Ashland Avenue from Irving Park Road to 95 th Street with implementation occurring in 3 phases. The first phase is now being designed for central Ashland Avenue from Cortland Avenue to 31 st Street. Ashland Avenue was chosen because it has the highest bus ridership of all CTA routes with 10M boardings in 2012, provides access to more than 130,000 jobs, services popular destinations and large employment centers such as the Illinois Medical District, University of Illinois at Chicago, United Center, Malcolm X College and 99 schools. It also provides access to seven CTA stations and 37 bus routes. It is expected to result in an up to 83% increase in bus speeds, save the average commuter nearly 65 hours per year as compared to the local bus and be 50% more reliable than the local bus. The Ashland BRT will feature: A dedicated center running bus lane in each direction to keep buses out of general traffic during boardings Limited stops, every 12 mile and at CTA El stations Transit Signal Priority intersections and longer green lights to keep traffic moving Potential pre-payment for faster boarding, similar to L stations Wide doors on left side of new, high-capacity vehicles Improved lighting, ADA ramps and real-time travel info Maintenance of existing medians and the addition of more than 75 blocks of new streetscaping, including medians and sidewalks To build the Ashland BRT, the following accommodations will need to be made: Eliminate one vehicle travel lane in each direction, typically leaving one travel lane in each direction Reduce parking by 8% and loading zones by 4% Remove some left turn lanes Highlighted Accomplishments: Five open public meetings; 31 meetings with community organizations; 14 direct ridership outreach events. Key Unfinished projects: Proposed route and features have not been finalized. Ashland BRT Chicago Neighborhoods 2015 Plans Synthesis Lincoln Park Lakeview February 2015 Page 7
