A joint venture of four best-in-class companies, Walsh-VINCI Transit Community Partners is the team selected to handle the design and construction of the Red Line Extension, under the direction of the Chicago Transit Authority.
The Red Line Extension will be an infrastructure improvement unlike any in recent history. It will transform how the Far South Side is connected to the city.

So much more
than a train
The Red Line Extension will create long-overdue economic development in Roseland, Pullman, Riverdale and Washington Heights, including more than 200,000 new jobs. The project features four new stations, each a unique district that that will offer a lot more than expanded transit: miles of new pedestrian and cyclist paths, more trees and shade along the Red Line, and a new bridge spanning the South Side.
