The Ravinia station sits on the Union Pacific/North Line in Highland Park and provides direct Metra service to Chicago’s Ogilvie Transportation Center in roughly 50 minutes during weekday rush hours. Riders can reach the Ravinia Festival grounds and Ravinia Park on foot in under ten minutes, and the station is also steps from the Ravinia business district’s shops and restaurants along Roger Williams Avenue. The surrounding residential streets offer sidewalks and bike routes that connect directly to the platform, eliminating the need for a car for both daily commutes and evening outings.
