Fluor Corporation and its joint venture partner Walsh Construction Company have reached Substantial Completion on the Chicago Transit Authority's $2.1 billion Red and Purple Line Modernization Phase One Project, the largest completed capital project in CTA's history. The milestone reflects the collaboration of an exceptional project team including Fluor, Walsh Construction, Stantec, Hitachi, and Meade. Since commencing in 2019, the program has modernized and replaced just over two miles of 100-year-old elevated track between Lawrence and Bryn Mawr, rebuilt four stations into modern, fully accessible facilities, and constructed the Red-Purple Bypass to eliminate track conflicts and improve throughput for Red, Purple, and Brown Line service. Additionally, 11 miles of new digital track circuit signaling have been installed, increasing capacity today while enabling future enhancements. The new stations and tracks fully opened in the summer of 2025, with final completion for RPM Phase One scheduled for November 2026.
