alternate plans during the NATO Summit, as Metra today said it will
close several stations on the Electric Line.
All Metra passengers–not just those on the Electric Line–will also
face carry-on restrictions and security screenings from May 19-21.
Riders will be allowed one briefcase-sized bag up to 15 by 15 inches and
four inches deep. Riders will not be allowed to carry boxes, luggage,
backpacks, pocket knives, bikes, food or liquid. This includes all
beverages, such as coffee and soda.
Stations on the Electric Line that will be closed May 19 and 20:
Museum Campus, 18th Street, McCormick Place, 27th Street and Kenwood. ...............................................................
