Same here ingating yesterday. I fortunately came south on Western so I wasn't stuck in that line (northbound Western). About 45 minutes from the portal to get in but I didn't have a live lift.
Lander's must be having problems today

Landers has the slowest clerks ever. Last weekend they must have been training a new person 'cause it took forever!@*^*%%
Did you see when someone plowed into, and knocked over, the steel beams protecting the outgate portal. Both times! hehehee Oooooops!
But the drivers have been providing nice artwork, and humorously placed fitness stickers, on the kiosks for our amusement. And advertising which Pacella dispatchers are corrupt.
MikeeeeRERM Thanks this. -
Well went to landers today, Came down 79th.st. And came to a stop a couple of blocks past Kedzie.
I was thinking there was construction or an accident, I was wrong, that was the line to get in. That was 3:00.
By the time in and got lifted off and back out the gate 6:30.JJKid Thanks this. -
Yeah.
Was there for 5 hours yesterday. Didn't even bother me. It's apart of the work. Was I majorly pissed? Yeah but... Tell you what though, I got farther in Candy Crush then I did in a year in just 4 Hours. lol!slim shady Thanks this. -
I was there at the same time, eastbound and not at all down, on 79th! After a half hour it started moving. It seems the CPD has been addressing the situation, somewhat. They have told the rail yard to "get these trucks off the street". Also directed traffic, stopping SB Western so NB lane of trucks could turn in several at a time.
I think there are two problems. Slow as heck clerks and the lift off line backs up all the way to the kiosks so no one can get through. They need to double up the lift off line when it gets that busy.
Or buy out one of those storage places and expand!
Mikeeeeslim shady Thanks this. -

I am surprised it took so long. At MnM Chicago they yell at security when only two trucks are waiting to turn in.

What's the detour for getting into the 63rd st rail?
-
or you can get off early and take 59th East to State. But that right turn on State should be taken mucho wide because there is a light pole that will jump out and bite you! Then the left onto 63rd could take a few light cycles.
Not sure why they had to close the bridge for a month now with no visible evidence of any work being done...
No detour NB. Regular exit at 67th/Marquette and jog right left onto State then right onto 63rd.
MikeeeeRERM Thanks this.
