What should be done to address traffic on the Kennedy Expressway? Here's what you told us
We asked reader what should be done to address traffic on the Kennedy Expressway? Here's what you told us, lightly edited for clarity:
"Stack another deck of lanes on top."
— Robert Ibarra
"More frequent trains, both Metra and CTA, bus-only lanes for express service on major streets, more protected bike lanes."
— Thomas Russell
"Charge a toll to subsidize mass transit."
— Roger Alan Pick
"Incentives from business for more work from home and different hours. Incentives for drivers to not drive during certain times. More park-and-ride areas. Easier connections with the northern L lines."
— Terri Lynn Visovatti
"Teach people what the left lane is for."
— David Hernandez
"A second loop to tie our L arteries together at a much larger radius."
— Eric Q Rosentreter
"Run the express lanes inbound in the evening. That’s when inbound travel times are the highest."
— Brian Bell
"More and better train and bus service and bike infrastructure. Tolls. ... More accessible train stations. ... You just can't keep pushing more cars on the expressways because no matter how many cars the expressway can move, there are still bottlenecks for cars at the ramps, on the surface grid and in terms of parking. The only way to make car traffic better is to take more cars off the road by giving more people more ways to avoid driving."
— Zachary Miller-Ember
"Have I-94 merge in more toward or after Addison by elevating the highway over the existing roadbed."
— Dominick Edward
"Could AI or computer-controlled driving increase efficiency — car spacing, fewer lane changes?"
— Bob Johnson
"Crosstown expressway."
— James Duda
"Keep the lanes from eastbound I-90 and I-94 separate at the merge. Give eastbound I-90 an off-ramp to Keeler ahead of the merge. Split downtown exits earlier and in larger groups. Extend short-merge on-ramps."
— Em Ty Seifert
"Build express lanes overhead ... and use the current express lanes and shoulders to add an extra two lanes in each direction."
— Alan Buchman
"Just one more lane, bro."
— Nikka Lynn
