Starting the week of June 16, 2014, milling and paving on Big Timber Road will begin.

Construction work hours on Big Timber Road will be from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day for approximately the proceeding two weeks, weather permitting. The work will be done on Big Timber between IL Route 72 and Randall Road.

The resurfacing process will include:

• Removal of 1 1⁄2 inches of existing pavement to allow for the new surface course to be placed.
• Placement of 2 1⁄4 inches of an asphalt layer over an oil application to provide a new smooth.

Temporary daily lane closures Monday through Saturday will be required to accomplish this work.

Motorists should expect delays, increased travel times during the resurfacing process, and are advised to consider alternate routes during this work. The Kane County Division of Transportation asks motorists to watch for fresh oil signs, flaggers and reduce speed while traveling through construction zone.

Questions or concerns may be directed to John Guddendorf (630) 816-9671. For all Kane County traffic advisories, see www.co.kane.il.us/dot/trafficalerts.
