Please click the link to complete this form.

It is very important that you review the attached documents regarding the contract negotiations with METRA. We are giving you an example of what the Carrier has offered as an hourly pay. THIS IS NOT a "set in stone number. It shows you how it compares to the BLE&T pay.

There is also a document that explains what we would lose if we went with the hourly rate system.

Tomorrow, I will post a poll that the GCA will use for your direct input on how you want to proceed.

"Yesterday marked the final meeting of the RTA Board of Directors, closing a meaningful chapter of leadership and service as the region transitions to a new board under the Northern Illinois Transit Authority (NITA). 🚇

RTA’s board members have helped guide Chicagoland's transit system through growth, changes, and challenges. Their leadership strengthened the partnership between the CTA, Metra, and Pace and helped advance a more connected, accessible, and equitable transit system for everyone.

We are especially grateful to Chairman Kirk Dillard, who has been the longest serving Chairman of the RTA Board since 2014, bringing dedication and determination to the RTA for over a decade.

Paving is to begin August 31. The first section to be worked on is the east-end of the building so parking will not be available on that side. Parking on the west-end will be available.

Where is the Metra deadhead agreement/LoA/MoA or whatever other name they hide shit under
