Weekly Construction Update

As this project continues to evolve, we’re committed to bringing you the latest information about the construction process and continued progress. Please visit us online at CookCountyLCR.org to view weekly construction updates shared by the project team.  

TRAVEL ADVISORY:

The contractor will be placing traffic into Stage 2B maintenance of the traffic configuration along Lake Cook Road the week of 8/17/20. Once traffic is placed in this configuration, the contractor will be able to finish storm sewer installations, continue the Buffalo Bridge reconstruction, install retaining walls and start the reconstruction of the roadway along Lake Cook Road. During this stage, Lake Cook Road will remain a single lane in each direction from Raupp Boulevard to Hastings Lane, and traffic is expected to stay in this configuration for the remainder of the construction season. Be alert when driving through the work zone and expect long delays.
