Temporary Route 14 Closure Update: Progress Continues
Construction has been in full force to complete the temporary four-lane Route 14 roadway and the temporary two-lane Lake Zurich Road. Here’s what’s been happening behind the scenes over the past two weeks:
- Completion of grading, stone placement and temporary Canadian National Railway (CN) train track construction
- Shifting of train traffic onto the temporary CN tracks
- Utility main relocations
- Continued excavation, grading, compaction and construction of the temporary roadways and sidewalk
What’s still to come?
- Remaining grading and compaction work
- Asphalt installation for the temporary rail crossing
- Completion of both temporary road surfaces and lane line markings
The expected opening is still currently anticipated by the end of October.
