Bikes aren't the only thing we repair. Veronica O. Davis' book "Inclusive Transportation: A Manifesto for Repairing Divided Communities" is inspiring and convicting. It's sure to be read again and will gain lots of notes, highlights, and dog-ears. #InclusiveTransportation – at Elgin, IL

This is exciting for transportation options for Elgin.

We're marking the culmination of decades of hard work today. For the first time since 1981, we're bringing intercity passenger rail back to Rockford. The Milwaukee District West line and Union Pacific partnership will extend Metra service beyond Elgin to reach Rockford.
