Oak Spring Road will be closed at the bridge, over the Des Plaines River, during construction. Oak Spring Road will be closed to through traffic. A detour route will be in place throughout the project duration. See included map for more detail. The detour route will use Second Street, Church Street, Fourth Avenue, IL. Route 176, and Saint Mary’s Road.
It is anticipated that the Lake Minear parking, Des Plaines River Trail path, and all residential driveways and streets will be accessible throughout the duration of the construction. Conversely, the Des Plaines River Trail spur to the LCFPD Canoe Launch and the Canoe Launch parking lot will be closed.
