The Illinois Department of Transportation has notified Martam Construction that the road closure may not begin until May 28 and is expected to continue through August 30, 2024. The existing informational signs will be revised.
The Illinois Department of Transportation has recently awarded a contract to Martam Construction for the curve correction on the I-55 North Frontage Road at Cass Avenue within the City of Darien in DuPage County. Traffic control devices and informational signage will be in place during the project. The project will entail a Road Closure between Bailey Road and the Mount Caramel Church entrance on Frontage Road. Access for the Shell Gas Station, Alpine Banquets and Church traffic will not be impacted and will be able to enter and exit onto Frontage Road during construction. The Carriage Greens Country Club and Center Cass School patrons and residents will need to detour to Plainfield Road and Bailey Road south to Frontage Rd.
While the City of Darien looks forward to the safety improvements, we request of all to be mindful and patient of the speed limits within the detour area of the neighborhood roadways.
