During the construction phase of this project, work will occur 24 hours a day and up to 6 or 7 days a week. Motorists should be prepared for changing traffic patterns on eastbound and westbound I-80/94 through the life of the project, as well as nightly lane closures in both directions.

Major Rehabilitation of the Kennedy Begins March 20 - Reminder
Travel delays are anticipated – alternative routes are strongly encouraged 
 
CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Transportation announced today that a rehabilitation of the Kennedy Expressway (Interstate 90/94), from the Edens Expressway (Interstate 94) junction to Ohio Street, is scheduled to begin, weather permitting, Monday, March 20. Major travel delays are anticipated, alternative routes are strongly encouraged.
 
The estimated $150 million project consists of rehabilitating 36 bridge structures and the Reversible Lane Access Control (REVLAC) system, replacing overhead sign-structures, installing new signage and modernized LED lights, pavement patching and structural painting. Additionally, Hubbard’s Cave, from Grand Avenue to Wayman Street, will be painted and new LED lighting installed.
 
The work will take place over three consecutive construction seasons, broken down into the following three stages:
 
Stage I – Inbound Kennedy
 
To help minimize the impact to traffic the reversible express lanes will remain open in the inbound direction, while two mainline inbound lanes will be closed at a time. Motorists should expect lane shifts and overnight lane closure, along with various ramp closures. Later this summer, painting and the installation of new LED lighting will begin on inbound Hubbard’s Cave, between Ohio and Lake streets. Construction is anticipated to be completed later this fall, with all lanes and ramps reopening and the express lanes resuming normal operations.
 
Stage II – Reversible Express Lanes
 
The reversible express lanes will be closed to accommodate rehabilitation of the REVLAC system and bridge structures, along with pavement patching. In addition, mainline lane closures will be needed to accommodate painting and the installation of new LED lighting in both directions of Hubbard’s Cave, between Ohio and Lake streets. Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2024 and be completed in fall 2024.
 
Stage III – Outbound Kennedy
 
The reversible express lanes will remain open in the outbound direction, while two mainline outbound lanes will be closed at a time. Lane shifts and overnight lane closure, along with various ramp closures will be needed to complete the work. Additionally, new LED lighting installation and painting will be completed on outbound Hubbard’s Cave, between Ohio and Lake streets. Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2025 and be completed in late fall 2025.
 
Motorists should expect significant delays and allow extra time for trips through this area. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to flaggers and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits and be on the alert for workers and equipment. Public transportation and traveling during non-peak hours are recommended if possible.
 
The Kennedy Expressway officially opened in November 1960, with the last major rehabilitation completed in 1994. The project will improve safety, traffic flow and reliability for the more than 275,000 motorists who use the expressway each day.
 
Statewide, over the next six years, IDOT is planning to improve more than 2,500 miles of roads and nearly 10 million square feet of bridges as part of Rebuild Illinois, which is investing $33.2 billion into all modes of transportation. Accomplishments through Year Three of Rebuild Illinois included approximately $8.6 billion of improvements statewide on 4,422 miles of highway, 412 bridges and 621 safety improvements.

Nightly Lane Closures Scheduled to Begin for Pedestrian Bridge Removal Over Tri-State Tollway (I-294)

Bridge removal completes relocation project for Hinsdale and Western Springs 

DOWNERS GROVE, IL – Temporary, overnight lane closures are scheduled next week on the Central Tri-State Tollway (I-294) south of Ogden Avenue for work to remove the old I-294 Pedestrian Bridge in Hinsdale and Western Springs. 
 
The pedestrian bridge located near Ogden Avenue closed in January to pedestrian traffic and the new I-294 Pedestrian Bridge constructed adjacent to 47th Street opened for use in fall 2022. 
 
Lane closures on I-294 will be necessary to safely accommodate a work zone for bridge removal. The work will be scheduled during overnight hours to minimize the impact on drivers. Up-to-date closure information will be posted on the Tollway website in the Daily Construction Alert. All work is weather dependent.
 
Beginning Monday, February 13, up to six nights of lane closures will be scheduled on I-294, reducing traffic to a single lane to begin pedestrian bridge removal. Overnight work will be done in one direction of I-294 at time, with one lane closing at 8 p.m., a second lane closing at 9 p.m. and a third lane closing at 11 p.m. All lanes are scheduled to reopen by 5 a.m. the following morning. 
 
During the week of February 20, up to two nights of additional lane closures will be scheduled on I-294 in one direction at a time, including intermittent full roadway closures, to remove the over-the-road structure. Each night, traffic in one direction will be reduced to a single lane by 11 p.m. with intermittent full stops anticipated to begin at 11:30 p.m. All lanes will be open to traffic by 5 a.m. the following morning. 
 
Additional work to remove existing pedestrian bridge structure has been completed in areas adjacent to the Tollway, including the removal of railings, pathways and concrete and installation of fencing. Restoration of the area with topsoil and seeding is scheduled to be completed in the spring. Access to local roads will be required and coordinated with the Villages of Hinsdale and Western Springs accordingly.
