MRChiCity Posted July 5, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Well PACE Northshore has not the Wilmette fireworks shuttle since 2019, I suspect that the ongoing man-power shortages are a large part of the reason why. BTW how bad is the man power shortage across the various divisions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing relevant (other than there will be a bus) is that the lot is at Loyola Academy instead of Edens Plaza. How it goes "direct" doesn't matter, unless the riders get stuck in a traffic jam. Also. $4.50 seems a bit steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure it will go down Lake, as it's a large arterial directly from the academy to gilson park. $4.50 is a bit pricey, but for the intended audience, it is reasonable enough. I do wonder, why not old orchard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't look like there has been much progress, especially around the Edens Expressway and the Hampton Inn. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
