Yeah it was alluded to, but no mention of resuming the planning or going into environmental review. On the other hand I dunno how they're gonna provide the service increases in their 2035 map without creating a dedicated path out of Chicago.
Also Marc Magliari is a great spokesperson, the guy sounds like Bill Kurtis.
