Week in Review: Accomplishments and Progress
This week, the contractor continued hauling concrete forms and winter protection blankets from the job site. Grading was completed down to the roadway subgrade, and aggregate was placed in preparation for the proposed HMA pavement and curb & gutter.
Looking Ahead: Planned Work (Weather Dependent)
Next week, the contractor anticipates completing the clearing and hauling of the remaining materials from the site. Work is also scheduled to continue with the placement of aggregate subgrade for the proposed sidewalk. Weather permitting, the framing and pouring of the concrete curb & gutter and concrete sidewalk will begin.
Community Impact: What to Expect
With the road closure now in effect, residents should be aware that Oak Spring Road from east of the Des Plaines River Trail to west of Hawthorn Lane is closed to traffic for the duration of the project. This closure is necessary to ensure the safety of both the workers and the public. Your patience and understanding are greatly appreciated as work to improve the community’s infrastructure continues. Residents are encouraged to stay informed about the project’s progress and any anticipated changes in traffic patterns.
