Description:

'Freeport Station' is part of an effort by the city of Freeport, population 26,443, to redevelop the area known as Tutty's Crossing.  The station will connect passengers with downtown Freeport and will be nearby to a bicycle route trailhead, and boat launch for recreational passengers.

The city has completed extensive planning and design for the station and is seeking a IL DOT transportation grant.

A PDF outlining the design of the station and platforms can be located here.  The station information website can be found here.
