We want to hear from you!
To enhance Pace’s transit network throughout the suburban Chicagoland area, Pace is gathering transportation suggestions from our stakeholders—riders, former riders, employers, advocates, business, and community leaders. We hope to gain valuable insights and ideas that can lead to more efficient and convenient bus routes and other transit options, while continuing to provide equitable and environmentally responsible transit options for the residents of the six counties and 274 municipalities we serve.
This initiative will help us find specific areas where improvements are needed, such as increasing bus frequency on certain routes, optimizing route planning, identifying new pickup and drop-off locations, and even adding other mobility options where none existed before. By involving the community in this process, we hope to create a more user-centered and responsive public transportation system that meets the diverse needs of area residents and today’s society.
Throughout 2024, Pace is gathering public input about the transit system that people want to see in northeastern Illinois. What are your public transit priorities? What would make transit more useful for you and your community? Service later into the evening? Coverage into areas that don't have enough service today? Something else? Please let us know. We are compiling feedback and will incorporate it into a draft plan coming later this year.
