The second phase of the North Branch Trail extension marks its official opening on Aug. 12.

The illegal activity is ruining restoration efforts and killing wildlife at LaBagh Woods.

The first phase of the North Branch Trail extension will open Sept. 21, officials said.

A federal grant to the Cook County Forest Preserve District might speed up construction of the trail.

The trail will be built in two stages, with the first branch costing $5.3 million, officials said.

The three-mile trail extension will move forward in the fall, officials said.

A 71-year-old pedestrian was killed in the accident, which involved a CTA bus on Sheridan Road.

The lot at 1044 W. Newport Ave. has been zoned for townhouses, two-flats and multi-unit buildings.

The lots would be used as a staging area for construction as four North Side stations are upgraded.

Residents complained after seeing Red Line construction crews repeatedly parking illegally.

Popular items sold include posters, shower curtains and wooden replicas, an agency spokeswoman said.

As much as 50 percent of rush hour traffic on Ashland could be diverted onto other north-south streets.

The CTA allows animals to ride if they're kept in a small carrier, but that rule isn't always followed.

The plan requires an environmental report review by the Federal Transit Administration.

The Ashland-Western Coalition is opposed to the plan to dedicate lanes on Ashland to express buses.
