Work has been focused on the south side of Glenview Road from Waukegan Road to Church Street. The majority of the standard concrete at the Veteran’s Memorial near River Drive will be completed prior to the end of the week. 

It is anticipated most of the concrete will be poured from Waukegan Road to River Drive prior to the Labor Day Weekend. After Labor Day Weekend, the contractor will focus on the pavement widening between River Drive and Chruch Street as well as the area west of the Mid-Town Square Development to the railroad tracks.  Once all the concrete curb & gutter and sidewalk is completed, the contractor will begin the roadway resurfacing phase of the project.

Tentatively, the Municipal parking lot next to the Oil Lamp Theater is scheduled to be closed starting Monday September 11th for approximately 4 days. This will allow for residents and customers to park along the street within this block while the parking lot is closed.

Thanks again for all your patience and understanding as we continue to work on the south side of Glenview Road.
