IDOT River Road Resurfacing
Scope:
River Road from Foster Ave. to IL 171 (1st Avenue), and Lawrence Ave. from River Road to Ridgewood Ave. - 4.4 miles of pavement milling, patching, resurfacing, ADA sidewalk repairs, shoulder and drainage improvements.
Timeline:
April 2020 through November 2020
What to Expect:
The contractor: 1) digs in the pavement to remove manhole lids, 2) grinds off the top 2-inches of asphalt, 3) digs in the pavement as needed to repair sewers and patch soft sections of pavement, 4) removes and replaces failed section of curb and gutter, 5) removes and replaces sidewalk at intersections to meet the new ADA requirements, 6) repaves the top 2-inches of asphalt, 7) replaces pavement striping.
Since this project is a long section of road to be improved, the contractors work in sections. It will be common to see barricades and lane closures while it appears no one is working. Although it may look like no one is working, the contractors will be working on a different section of the project outside of the Village.
