People Mover/ATS @O’Hare/ORD shuttle train ceases ops until 202? [REOPENED 11/3/21]

https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/pe...til-fall-2019/The People Mover, O’Hare’s shuttle train, to cease until Fall 2019

"The shuttle train that connects O’Hare Airport’s terminals, the People Mover, will be closed from early [a.m. Jan. 9,] 2019 through the fall as crews work to finish “the ongoing modernization and extension of the airport transit system. ***

The department expects the upgrades to the People Mover — which carries 30,000 people per day — to be completed by next fall.In the meantime, the CDA will operate a shuttle bus service that will take passengers to and from the airport terminals via a new bus lane, the CDA said.

***
The shuttle train’s closure is expected to worsen vehicle traffic around the airport’s terminal roadways, and the CDA is encouraging fliers to take the CTA Blue Line to and from the airport if possible. ***"
