Starting the week of May 25, 2015, milling and paving improvements on Orchard Road between Tanner and 1,000 feet south of I-88 bridge, will begin. Construction work hours will be from 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. each day for approximately the ensuing three weeks, weather permitting.

The resurfacing process will include:

• Removal of 2.5 inches of existing pavement to allow for the new surface course to be placed
• Placement of 2.5 inches of asphalt over an oil application to provide a new smooth riding surface
• Restriping and shouldering of the roadways once asphalt is completed

Temporary daily lane closures Monday thru Saturday will be required to accomplish this work. Please watch for, fresh oil signs, flaggers, and reduced speed while traveling through the construction zone. Motorists should expect delays, increased travel times during the resurfacing process, and are advised to consider alternate routes during the work.

Questions and concerns may be directed to John Guddendorf (630) 816-9671. For all Kane County Traffic Advisories, see KDOT Traffic Alerts.
