Summary/Notes: The County owns the majority of the parcel referred to as the Rosemont Transit Center, at Des Plaines River Road and the Kennedy Expressway in Rosemont. Pace has operated a bus terminal and staging area on the site for many years. The bus area requires improvements in order to improve pedestrian and vehicular areas, and to accommodate an increase in public transportation demands associated with the inauguration of express Pace service associated with the Jane Addams reconstruction. The County, Pace, the CTA and other governmental agencies have collaborated in developing the plan for these improvements, which will increase the area for Pace operations, with a minor reduction in the parking area. Pace indemnifies the County against any claims arising from its use of the site.
