Willow Road Work Plan

July 13-24, 2015

Waukegan Road to Bridge.   The contractor is working on the Phase III center median and left turn lanes.  This includes pavement removal, curb and gutter installation, left turn pavement, permanent signage, traffic signal installation, pavement markings, and irrigation system installation.  The signal work started at Waukegan Road and is proceeding east along the corridor.  The permanent signals are planned to be activated once fully installed and then the contractor will remove the temporary devices.  The final signal interconnect work will take place at the end of the project after all signals have been activated.        

Bridge to Happ.  The traffic in this area is anticipated to be changed to a Phase III configuration on July 15th and will then match the rest of the corridor.  The contractor is in the process of staining the bridge and backfilling the area by the sidewalks.  Once the traffic has been shifted they will start the median curb and gutter installation, left turn lanes, permanent signage, traffic and lighting installations, pavement markings, and irrigation system installation
