Willow Road Work

April 4 to April 18, 2014

With the milder weather, construction work along Willow Road is again moving ahead. Over the next two weeks the following is planned:

• The Wagner Road detour will remain in effect until Sunday April 6. Additional pavement work is then anticipated, at the intersection, on Monday, April 7th between 9:30 am and 2:00 pm. The contractor pavement installation will be phased in so that the roadway can remain open to local traffic.

• The contractor will be out this week and next to sweep and clean the area, fix pot holes, restripe the corridor, and to install the safety lane delineators.

• Piling work will begin at the bridge as soon as the river water levels permit.

• Utility work will continue throughout the area. NICOR’s work on a gas main relocation, between Waukegan and Sunset Ridge Road, is expected to be completed by April 16th; the storm sewer and water main will be installed between Chapel Hill Lane and Wagner; and then the storm sewer work, east of the bridge, will begin.

All of the traffic staging for this work is already in place and no substantial delays are anticipated.
