For July 29 to August 9
At the July 24, 2013 Willow Road coordination meeting, IDOT and Lorig Construction provided their proposed construction schedule for the upcoming weeks.
- The “one-way” flagging operations which were in place this week, for the temporary paving, are complete. Next week the construction area will return to one lane in each direction.
- The Bristol Street detour will remain in effect for work at the bridge. Vehicles can access Bristol from the south but do not have access to Willow Road. The public parking spaces in the area will remain available.
- West of Sunset Ridge Road, the Phase I work will continue with the contractor undertaking site grading, subgrade and pavement operations. The lane closures and traffic patterns for this work are in effect.
- On Waukegan Road, the Phase I work will continue with the contractor undertaking site grading and subgrade operations. The lane closures and traffic patterns for this work are in effect.
- From Sunset Ridge Road to Bristol, the pre-stage work will continue with the installation of the drainage systems, a new water main, and the retaining wall and drainage structures near the bridge. Once completed, the Bristol Street detour will be removed. The lane closures for this work are already in place.
- From Bristol to the Eden’s Expressway, utility relocation work will continue. Short term, lane closures may be needed for portions of this work.

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