From the Kennedy to the Tri-State to Main Street -- this construction season will be ugly. Here's what you need to know.
On the Kennedy Expressway, a massive three-year rehabilitation has only just begun. On the Central Tri-State Tollway, an excruciatingly complex rebuild and widening continues.
The agency's wow-factor project is also the one with the least impact on traffic, because it's an entirely new road. I-490 will wrap around O'Hare International Airport's west side, connecting with I-90 to the north and I-294 to the south, and with Route 390 in the center, once it's extended east."It's a project of regional and national significance, and it is transformative," he said.
"We want people to be aware they'll not only see traffic impacts during their inbound commutes, but with the express lanes remaining for inbound only , drivers will also feel an impact on their outbound commutes because they no longer will have those two express lanes available," IDOT spokeswoman Maria Castaneda said.
When it comes to complicated projects, the $4 billion Central Tri-State upgrade between Balmoral Avenue and 95th Street is the alpha dog.
One tangled knot is the junction of I-88, I-290 and the Tri-State, which is continually backed up. To solve that, engineers designed longer ramps with greater capacity and that are straighter than the tight loops of the originals."It should really untangle what's there when it's all done" by the tentative date of 2026, Nashif said.
