Full Notification

Beginning tomorrow, Friday March 22nd, Route 38, east of Elm Road (which is east of Kirk Road) continuing east past Kautz Road, will be reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction to allow for construction of the overpass. The eastbound lanes will be completely closed and the westbound lanes will be used to provide one lane of eastbound traffic and one lane of westbound traffic. The Illinois Department of Transportation advises that this road closure will be for an extended period of time, likely approximately one year. This will likely cause significant traffic delays through this area. It is recommended that motorists use alternative routes of travel to avoid this area. Recommended alternative routing, if traveling west on Route 38, would be to take Route 38, turn left on Fabyan Parkway then turn right on Kirk Road. If traveling east on Route 38, take Kirk Road south to Fabyan Parkway, turn left onto Fabyan Parkway to Route 38. Please watch your vehicle speed if traveling through this construction area and watch for workers.
