Some interesting news lately:
$520 million over 10 years for a N to SE transitway (as discussed in the $52m thread)

55,000 hours added to transit for high volume routes and new areas. The bad news is that monthly passes will go up to $96

And lastly, Chicago's own problems trying to introduce their $454m digital fare system. Plenty of issues including double and triple charging riders and federal ID's tricking the system. Hopefully once our system is in place we don't have these issues.
