Urban Gondola, similar to one in Medellin, Columbia and one proposed for Austin, Texas that would take passengers from Union Station down Van Buren to Stations above the two L stations and tracks to Van Buren Metra/South Shore/ Institute of Arts station then south past Buckingham Fountain and south east across Grant Park to a station between Field and Shedd then east to a station on the south side of the Planetarium, south along Northerly Island across the small bay to a station between Soldier Field and the new Lucas Museum then south across LSD to its final station in McCormick place. Benefits: 1. Constant motion no waiting for bus/rail 2. small footprint, just need towers to string cable 3.Small personal 6 person carriages with room for 2 bikes 4.Quiet 5. Amazing Scenic opportunities

Buses leaving the campus are often held up when tourists who are unfamiliar with the CTA attempt to make correct change for their bus fare. If Ventra machines were present on the campus, many of these bottlenecks could be avoided.

While bus service is currently available between Chicago's Museum Campus into the city, and other locations such as MSI and Lincoln Park, it can and should be improved for all local and suburban residents as well as visitors. Express bus service between parking centers and CTA transit stations and Metra stations would be best. Transit coordination needs to be improved in scheduling.
