The contractor framed and poured sections of curb & gutter and sidewalk along Lake Street between Carol Lane and IL 83, and they removed the existing median at the railroad crossing.
Next week, weather permitting, the contractors plan to;
- Continue to frame and pour the proposed curb & gutter, median, and sidewalk along Lake Street.
- Continue the excavation and stone base installation for the bike path.
- Continue to lower down the existing manhole frames in the roadway.
- Continue to install electrical conduit for the traffic signal components.
- Begin to grind the existing pavement and begin various pavement patching along Lake Street from Washington Street to IL 83.
Motorists should expect daily lane closures along Lake Street as the improvements continue. As always, please be alert for construction workers and equipment.
