An eight-week construction project on DuSable Lake Shore Drive began Monday, prompting lane closures and traffic disruptions for commuters.
The pavement repair project will be conducted in four phases, addressing both southbound and northbound lanes on a busy section of DuSable Lake Shore Drive near the Museum Campus. Lane closures for the entirety of the project will stretch between Roosevelt Road and 31st Street.Currently, three southbound lanes will be shut down between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. daily. In an effort to limit disruptions during rush hour, one lane will be closed between 4 p.m. and 9 a.m. daily.
The work will coincide with some major events, like Sueños Music Festival in Grant Park, the Chicago Blues Festival in Millennium Park, and the Soldier Field 10 Mile & 10K Race.The road work will, however, be finished just in time for the Rolling Stones to take the stage at Soldier Field in late June, along with NASCAR’s Chicago Street Race, and Lollapalooza.
