Drivers should plan their commutes around continued road surface work on North DuSable Lake Shore Drive between LaSalle Drive and Hollywood Avenue this week. The southbound lanes will be closed in stages through Friday morning, primarily overnight.
Work began at 3pm on Sunday between Irving Park Road and Belmont Avenue, with the lanes scheduled to reopen at 6am on Monday.
Then, on Monday at 7 p.m., southbound traffic between Irving Park and Fullerton Avenue will be reduced to one lane, but the ramps will remain open. Beginning at 9 p.m., all southbound lanes between Irving Park and Fullerton, including the on and off ramps, will be closed. They are expected to reopen at 06:00 on Tuesday.
The same pattern will continue until Friday at 6:00 a.m. – operating between Belmont and Fullerton Tuesday evening through Wednesday morning; between Fullerton and LaSalle Drive Wednesday evening through Thursday morning; and again between Fullerton and LaSalle Thursday night through Friday morning.
Additional updates on lane closures and the latest information on work progress are available online at chicago.gov.
