147th Street (Sibley Boulevard) station

147th Street (Sibley Boulevard) is one of two Metra Electric District stations located on its Main Branch in Harvey, Illinois. The station is located on 147th Street (IL 83, also known as Sibley Boulevard), and Clinton Street, and is 19.0 miles (30.6 km) away from the northern terminus at Millennium Station.[2] In Metra's zone-based fare system, 147th Street-Sibley Boulevard station is in zone 2. As of 2018, the station is the 62nd busiest of Metra's 236 non-downtown stations, with an average of 829 weekday boardings.[1]

Since May 16, 2022, the station has been closed and undergone major renovations. Crews are making improvements such as adding bicycle parking, a kiss-and-ride, and an elevator to make the station accessible. The reconstruction was expected to take 12-15 months. During that time, the Ivanhoe and Harvey stations can be used to access Metra trains.[3][4]

The station is named after both of the names for Illinois Route 83 in Harvey; Sibley Boulevard, and 147th Street. The bridge over Route 83 has a clearance of 13 ft 10 in (4.22 m), and part of the waiting room is built underneath the north side of the bridge. A large parking lot exists on the east side of the tracks between 147th Street and the Little Calumet River. A smaller parking lot exists on the southwest corner of Clinton and 146th Streets on the west side of the tracks.
