One Lane Closures (Scheduled to start Aug. 4): Route 14 will be reduced to one lane in each direction between Valencia Avenue and Hough Street to connect the temporary roadway. Access to adjacent roads and driveways will remain open.
Temporary full Route 14 Closure (Anticipated as early as Sept. 15): A temporary full closure of Route 14 is required for approximately four weeks so CN can complete the temporary railroad tracks and shift train traffic. A detour will be signed along Lake Cook Road and Hough Street. The graphic below provides more details on the project scope.
Once the rail line is raised and the gap in the temporary roadway is constructed, Route 14 will reopen with full four-lane traffic.
Please plan ahead and leave early for your appointment during high traffic times.
