Question

. How did the Edens Expressway affect the Skokie Valley, and how did the Northwest and East-West Tollways affect Oak Brook and Schaumburg?

Answer 1

The Northwest and East-West Tollways facilitated access to areas such as Oak Brook and Schaumburg which were previously undeveloped areas not served by commuter railroad lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The start of the East Tollways spread across the original area allowing the undeveloped areas at the time to be served by the commuter railroad lines.

Answer 2

The Edens Expressway stimulated rapid development of the Skokie valley. The high speed link reshaped the region just like the railroads had. The Northwest and East-West Tollways facilitated access to areas such as Oak Brook and Schaumburg which were previously undeveloped areas not served by commuter railroad lines.
