The Yellow Line is made into a North/South Line running along Cicero. A Teal line is added, which originates at Kimball and snakes its way south along Kedzie toward the Orange Line, before joining existing track and terminating at Blue Island. The planned Red Line extension is included, however two additional Green Line extensions are proposed (using mostly existing track), to link up to the Cyan lines and further expanding the access on the South side. The aim of this map is to show that existing track can be used to expand the connectivity of the city west and southward without disrupting much in neighborhoods.
