Future concepts

Planned—not current service

Plans, studies, and concepts below are not counted as services or infrastructure available today.

Planned

Pulse Cermak / 22nd Street

Fourteen-mile regional planning corridorEnvironmental review / preliminary planning as of July 9, 2026
Planned

I-290 / I-88 express bus concept

Pace's final study recommends a first alignment from Yorktown Center to Forest Park Transit Center via Oakbrook Center, followed by a longer-term northwest alignment and infill stations.

The study is an implementation recommendation, not an operating route or funded service commitment.

Current route cards document regional services that stop in Oak Brook; they do not imply all neighborhoods are within easy walking distance of transit.

Oak Brook has no passenger rail station. Route connections to CTA and Metra occur outside the village.

CMAP open space is a land-use classification. It is not added to Park District, Sports Core, or forest-preserve acreage because those categories and boundaries can overlap.
