If you are flying in, please let us know your arrival information. Chicago's O'Hare Airport is the closest major airport, about 40 miles from LUREC. Chicago Executive Airport (for private and small planes) in Wheeling, Illinois, is about 36 miles from LUREC. Please allow at least 1 hour travel time to and from either airport. Midway Airport is over 60 miles from LUREC. If you fly into any O’Hare or Midway, you can either take an Uber or Taxi or take the Elevated train (The L) to downtown Chicago and then catch a Metra train to Woodstock, Illinois.
Here is a link to the CTA (Chicago Transit Authority) website https://www.transitchicago.com/to get you from either airport to Chicago. Once you get to Chicago you will need to catch a Metra Union Pacific train from the Ogilvie Transportation Center.
Here is a link to the Metra website https://metra.com/. From there, take the Union Pacific Northwest (UP-NW to Harvard/McHenry) Metra line to Woodstock. LUREC is about a 10-minute drive from the Woodstock Metra Station, 90 Church St., Woodstock, IL. We recommend taking a cab or rideshare service from the train station to LUREC as the facility is located in a rural area and there are no sidewalks in the area leading up to the campus.
