Fifty years to finish Elgin-O’Hare?

Fifty years to finish Elgin-O’Hare?

Really, Mr. Cronin, you consider taking 50 years to finally break ground for the Elgin-O’Hare Western Access project making history? I guess, in a sense, it is because that will mean anything that takes less time will really be history?

But the really scary part was your statement that “there is still more work to be done.” Does that mean another 50 years before it is completed?

In 1958 there was also the promise that tollways would become a “freeway” once the bonds were paid off ... when will history be made on that?
