At a press conference held at 47th Street and the Dan Ryan Expressway where [Richard Daley] was joined by CTA President [Frank Kruesi], Arlene Williams, senior vice president of lending at SNB; Joan Archie, director of employment, counseling and training for the Chicago Urban League; George Ward, vice president of business development at SNB, Daley said the project is visionary. Though many Chicagoans take the CTA's rapid transit service for granted, visitors to our city are still impressed that we had the foresight to build rail lines down the medians of our expressways," said Daley. Daley said that is why the CTA began this rehab project, which is needed to improve the "electrical power system, install state-of-the-art signals and make a number of improvements to stations along the l...
CHICAGO (AP) - The president of the Chicago Transit Authority on Friday criticized Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff's comments that cities and states are largely responsible for protecting their own trains and buses. CTA chief Frank Kruesi said he was "shocked" by Chertoff's remarks Thursday when Chertoff said the federal government's security focus must be on the airlines, and that state and local authorities should pay for mass transit security
CHICAGO (AP) - Dozens of shaken and soot-covered commuters were evacuated from a smoke-filled subway tunnel during Tuesday's afternoon rush hour after a train derailment and fire on a commuter line, officials said, adding there was no indication the incident was terrorism-related. The last car of an eight-car commuter train derailed shortly after 5 p.m., material under the train caught fire and thick smoke filled the subway line, said Chicago Transit Authority president Frank Kruesi.
Government's opinion on the proposed EPA standards The proposed EPA standards for air pollution control drew negative feedbacks from several government agencies such as the Commerce, Transportation and Treasury departments.

The state's ability to effectively detercrime and punish offenders has frequently been described by proponents of law-and-order policing as having been fundamentally eroded by bureaucratic constraints and cumbersome procedural rules that have hamstrung public policing efforts and undermined the capacity of the criminal justice system to mete out appropriate punishment (see Braithwaite and Pettit, 1990; Reinharz, 1996; Garland, 2000; Bayley and Shearing, 2001 ). Ostensibly designed to protect against incidents of crime and antisocial activity, and often justified in terms of homeland security and reductions in violent crime, the diffusion of police surveillance technology paradoxically has led to "a virtually endless spiral of amplification of risk-as risk is managed in certain secure z...

The funding locks in federal dollars needed to complete this project. "With funding for this $530 million CTA project now locked in, we will be able to take another step in our commitment to improve neighborhood quality of life and public transportation for CTA riders and all the people of Chicago," [Daley] announced. While not present, disgruntled with the CTA is Ald. Ed H. Smith (28th) who too has a list of demands. "The more acute the gas prices become, the more people will need the CTA. I've got the Green and Orange Lines in my ward. The CTA has been on the record since this construction project started in 2001, and when it is complete, the CTA should re-evaluate the hours of service, and we will do that, but not until the construction is complete," said [Noelle Gaffney].

I saw the orange flames but I didn't hear it," said [Joel Johnson], whose face and white shirt were covered in soot. "People started running to the front (of the train), the whole place was filled with smoke, I could barely breathe. "It just kind of dipped a little," the 24-year-old Chicagoan said. "It was crowded. I was scared. I'm still kind of scared right now. You never expect it to happen on the train you're on."
