Work on the second part of the annual county resurfacing program is scheduled to begin the week of Monday, July 3, 2017, weather permitting. The program will consist of paving and/or guardrail replacement on the roads as listed below.

In order to replace the old pavement, the contractor will first mill and prepare the roadway involving temporary daily lane closures with flaggers directing traffic.

Construction work hours will be from 7 a.m. until 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. This work is anticipated to take approximately three months to complete, weather permitting.

Listed below are the portions of roads to be resurfaced and/or have guardrail replaced this year.

The resurfacing process is part of KDOT’s annual maintenance to increase the longevity of County roads. Guardrail along Perry Road at Miner Road will be replaced to meet the current IDOT safety requirements.

Questions or concerns may be directed to Patrick VerHalen at (630) 313-0314. For all Kane County traffic advisories, see www.co.kane.il.us/dot/trafficalerts.
