New Construction Project Update – Sept. 2023

The work is steadily continuing at our construction site, and the most exciting update for CityLink employees since last month is that the new large employee parking lot was officially completed and cleared for use! Employees are now able to park in a secure and fenced parking lot located off of Van Buren Street. This is a permanent parking lot that will continue to be used once the new building is completed in 2024.

On September 6, a group from OLLI at Bradley University, including GPMTD Board Trustee Sharon McBride, visited our construction site and did a walkthrough of the new facilities. CityLink leadership and Beth Schupp from River City Construction (RCC) enjoyed showing the group the progress being made and answering questions about CityLink and the transportation services we offer.
