Bicycle Bridge Building Over Rakow Road

The segment of Rakow Road between Pyott and Virginia will be closed for 15 minutes during the week of January 16th to allow for the placement of the bicycle path bridge for the McHenry County Conservation District Trail.  The bridge will pass over Rakow Road just east of Pyott Road.

The bridge is fabricated in three sections.
The south section will be placed one day, requiring one lane of traffic to be flagged while the segment is lifted from the truck and set in place.  The center and north sections will be set the following day and will require the 15 minute closure while the center section is set across the existing roadway.  Traffic will be flagged as necessary during the operation to allow the bridge to be set in place.

Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation during this time.
