Schaumburg, IL – Metra commuters using the Schaumburg station should expect changes next week as the south parking lot closes for resurfacing.
According to the Village of Schaumburg, the south lot, located in Roselle, will be unavailable beginning Monday, Sept. 15, and is expected to reopen on Saturday, Sept. 20. The closure affects hundreds of daily commuters who typically rely on the south side entrance for station access.
Drivers are being redirected to the north lot, located in Schaumburg. Daily parking costs remain $2 and can be purchased at kiosks or through the Passport Parking app.
Village officials provided a detour map showing the designated route from Travis Parkway to Rodenburg Road, then west onto Metra Station Drive before reaching the open lot. Signs will also be posted to guide commuters.
The closure is part of resurfacing work designed to extend the lifespan of the parking area and improve safety for riders. Schaumburg officials said the project should be completed within the week, weather permitting.
Commuters who typically park in the south lot are encouraged to allow for extra travel time during the closure, especially during peak morning and evening rush hours.
