The 3.4-mile paving project on CSAH 18 (South Shore Drive) is scheduled to begin Tuesday, July 16 and be completed this fall, the Cook County Highway Department announced on July 12.
KGM Contractors, Inc. of Angora will be the contractor for this project, which runs from CSAH 8 (Devil Track Road) west to the end. The project includes repair or replacement of culverts, repair of existing subgrade and placement of new bituminous pavement. Alignments and profiles will not be corrected as part of this project.
According to County Engineer Krysten Foster, traffic will periodically be restricted to one lane during construction. She urged motorists to plan accordingly and to drive with caution in all work zones.
