June 6, 2025

12:00 PM - 1:00 PM

This special noontime webinar is being co-sponsored by the UTC and Transport Chicago.  Visit this page to register for Transport Chicago 2025, which will be held June 13 at the voco Chicago Downtown Hotel.

Key topics to be addressed include:

  • Technological improvements that BNSF (and much of the industry) is doing to improve air quality around our operations
  • Freight/economic trends we are seeing at UP
  • The CREATE program – a first-of-its-kind public-private partnership between the freight railroads, Amtrak, Metra, Chicago DOT, IDOT, FHWA/FRA to improve Chicago’s rail transportation network. $2 billion has been spent so far to untangle Chicago’s freight and passenger rail networks, making it more efficient and environmentally friendly

The event will be held via zoom.
