The misnamed Elgin-O’Hare might only be half misnamed!

From today’s Chicago Tribune: Deal is reached to build western access to O’Hare

Chicago and three other government bodies will announce a formal agreement Tuesday to move forward on building a western-access roadway into O’Hare International Airport, according to transportation officials.

The agreement calls for extending the Elgin-O’Hare Expressway into the airport, but only after Chicago’s massive O’Hare expansion project is completed.

Behold! The Elgin-O’Hare Expressway might actually reach one of the destinations in its name! Well, within the next 10 years. For now, its still more the Hanover Park-Itasca Expressway.

One thought on “The misnamed Elgin-O’Hare might only be half misnamed!”

  1. More roads? Chicago is so cool in that regard. @#%@% Pdx is just like, ‘screw you guys, we built roads 30 years ago, they should be good enough’.
