I never had an issue with that in Chicago and the station I was at 4x a week was in the middle of a construction zone too.

It's funny, when you are in a car and you're looking at the train station in a median you can't help but feel its lacking so much. However, I never felt that way as a passenger waiting for a train. It could be that the station was 100% covered (or near) and it was constantly packed, but I don't know.
