parallel runways are not uncommon. with enough spacing between them, simultaneous use is possible. i think ord (chicago o’hare) can do up to 4 landings at the same time.
Looks like two to me based on the layout. In an emergency, MDW isn’t far off, DuPage has the second longest runway in Illinois at 7571x150 ft (after ORD), and Aurora has a 6501x100 ft runway. I know Hastert used to fly in and out of Aurora in what I believe was a 707.

ord has eight runways now.
