What's New for Willow Road

For April 22 to May 3, 2013

At the April 17, 2013 Willow Road coordination meeting IDOT and Lorig Construction provided their proposed construction schedule for the next two weeks. The work planned includes:

Weeks of April 22nd & 29th

  • Utility companies such as Com Ed, Comcast and NICOR will continue their work relocating utilities that are in conflict with the new roadway.
  • The general contractor, Lorig Construction will continue to install erosion control measures to ensure that silt and other debris is not washed away into adjacent properties or waterways; they will be installing the temporary traffic signals at the intersections, starting on the west end of the project at Waukegan and Willow; and will then start removing the existing landscape medians.

More detailed construction work and traffic conditions can be tracked at http://northfieldwillowroad.blogspot.com/ ; through Facebook at Willow Road Construction Project; or through Twitter at @willowroadcp.

Please note that the actual start dates and activities may change due to weather, utility, permitting approvals, or other contractor conflicts.
