130th[5][6] is a proposed rapid transit station for the Red Line as part of the Red Line Extension. The station is planned to open in 2029,[7] if the CTA can get the funding for the $3.6 billion project.[8] The station would be constructed in Chicago's Riverdale and South Deering neighborhoods. Nearby suburbs will include Dolton and Calumet City.
