Metra / Mass TransitBigger, newer roads are not a panacea for the region’s transportation problems, but they are one step in the right direction, as is mass transit. Not long ago, I worked with Representative William O. Lipinski (D-IL) to secure federal funding for studying and assessing the problems plaguing Metra and its passengers along the Heritage Corridor. I also joined other members of the Illinois delegation to secure many of the dollars Metra needs to make operational improvements along the Corridor and extend Southwest Service to Manhattan, Illinois – both of which are critical to the economic interests of the 13th District.
