Transportation
The Stevenson Expressway (I-55) is a quick fifteen minutes north via LaGrange Road (U.S. Route 45) which is the main thoroughfare through the heart
of Orland Park. The Veteran’s Memorial Tollway/I-355, completed in 2007, is accessible west of Orland Park, connecting to the western suburbs. This
thoroughfare has opened up new potential for the village as a residential option for the many people employed in the suburbs along this corridor and
as a travel destination for those looking for entertainment and activity options. Interstate 80 borders the southern end of Orland Park and provides
connections to numerous roads and interstates.
Commuters looking for
an alternative to driving
board Metra Southwest
Service trains at three
stations in the village for a
convenient trip to Chicago’s
Loop. The Main Street
Triangle District, a planned
downtown development
at 143rd Street along
Southwest Highway and
LaGrange Road, includes a
new, $3 million commuter
train station and ample
parking. Additional trains
on the Rock Island Line are
available at stops in nearby
Tinley Park and Mokena.
The improved Pace
Suburban Bus Service
operates three routes in Orland Park, one of which ends at the
Midway Airport Station, where it connects with CTA Southwest
Orange Line “L” trains to downtown Chicago. In addition, Pace
works with the village to offer dial-a-ride service for residents
in Orland Park and Orland Hills. This service is especially useful
for disabled riders and senior citizens.
Commercial air transportation is readily available for
travelers, as Orland Park is situated just 25 minutes from
Chicago’s Midway International Airport and 40 minutes from
O’Hare International Airport.
No matter where you need to go, it’s easy to travel in and
around the Orland Park area.
