Pace Local Transit Planning For Hoffman Estates, Waukegan and Woodridge

The Hoffman Estates study recommended transit service alternatives, revised land uses and bicycle / pedestrian improvements. In 2018 Pace launched I-90 Express Bus services to the new Barrington Road Station as well as the new Route 612, Barrington Road Cirulator in Hoffman Estates.

In 2021 the former AT&T campus in Hoffman Estates opened as Metroburb, a new mixed-use district featuring office, retail and residential accommodationsin close proximity to the Barrington Station. The Woodridge study recommends the area around I-355 and 75th as the preferred location for an I-55 Bus on Shoulder park-n-ride facility. At this location, the Centerpointe of Woodridge is the preferred site due to its proximity near this interchange and site factors that support the development of park-n-ride service. Additionally, this site also has the potential to also serve as a remote park-n-ride facility with connecting service to Metra BNSF stations. Since completion of the Plan Pace has been evaluating the capacity/equipment/garage constraints of I-55 service as it related to a new Woodridge Park and Ride, as well as future development of the Bus on Shoulder corridor. The Green Bay Road final report was completed and delivered in December 2016.
