Week in Review: Accomplishments and Progress
2025 Road Program
Landscape restoration has been completed across the entire project area.
North Alley Utility Burial
Underground conduit installation has been completed. Comcast and ComEd have finished placing all service pedestals on site.
Looking Ahead: Planned Activities
Starting Monday, June 16, ComEd plans to begin scheduled service cut-overs. This will involve short, temporary power outages at designated times as buildings transition to the new utility connections. ComEd will provide scheduled outage times during the upcoming service transfer process.
Community Impact: What to Expect
As work continues in the North Alley, the Slusser Street exit will be closed periodically, with traffic being redirected to Hawley Street as necessary.
Construction signage has been placed in the downtown area for the 2025 Road Program. As part of the Road Program, Pace Bus Route 570 will be rerouted, see here for more information.
Residents, patrons, and visitors are encouraged to exercise caution and be aware of signage and flaggers identifying changes in vehicle and pedestrian traffic within the project area. Please watch for construction signage, follow all posted traffic control measures, and visit this website for weekly updates throughout the duration of the project.
