Walkup Road Work Update

Sod is being placed along many of the driveways at the northern limits and work has started on the surface placement on driveways.  Traffic is being shifted from Raintree Drive south onto the recently placed asphalt.  Earth excavation and storm sewer installation will continue next week in preparation for the stone and curb placement.

South section:
Asphalt is being placed from Talismon Drive to Burning Bush in anticipation of the traffic lane shifting scheduled for early next week.

Work continues on the retaining wall being constructed along Veteran Acres park with the first concrete placement expected late next week.  The retaining wall along IL 176 in front of the shopping center is also progressing and should be completed late next week.  Backfill placement and final grading for stone placement will then follow.


On the east leg on IL 176 new curb will be poured on
Monday 10/22 with asphalt placement scheduled for mid-week next week.  This will then allow lane shifting on the north leg of Walkup in the coming weeks.

As always please drive carefully, slow down, watch for workers, and remember cell phone use is prohibited in construction zones.
