FIVE NEW ANNOUNCEMENTS         6-13-08

PLEASE READ

****************************

WEST LAKE FOREST SHUTTLE SERVICE EXTENDED

The Conway Park Owners’ Association (CPOA) has agreed to extend the shuttle service to the west Lake Forest Metra station provided by Olson Transportation until TMA/PACE take over all routes or Friday, July 25th, whichever is earliest.

However, the schedule has been adjusted. See attachment ConwayTimes 6-13-08

We expect the TMA to be servicing both Lake Forest stations by mid-July and will make every effort to ensure service is not interrupted during this transition.

The CPOA is not the entity dealing directly with TMA/PACE regarding the Shuttle Bug Program. We funded this service as an accommodation to the area businesses at the request of BPTC due to the effect various roadway improvement construction was having on commuters.

The Shuttle Bug negotiations for services are handled by your company’s TMA representative, which for most of your businesses is part of your Human Resources department.

If you have any questions about the service to be provided by TMA/PACE, please contact your internal TMA representative. Additionally, you are welcome to send messages to the Stuckonsixty.com website and we will forward as appropriate.

RT. 60 BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE UPDATE REVISED:

Below is the revised tentative project schedule based on comments at recent project meetingss: IDOT will be releasing their official schedule soon.

• Below is the revised tentative project schedule based on comments at recent project meetings:   IDOT will be releasing their official schedule in the near future.

  Effective Saturday, June 14 --- All traffic will be shifted to the new westbound side of the bridge so that the eastbound (south half) can be closed for demolition and reconstruction. This traffic shift will provide traffic flow consistent with what is available now–one lane in each direction with SB and NB turn lanes. This will also include a right-turn lane east of Riverwoods Road onto southbound I-94

  Approximately 30 days after the shift, traffic flow will be returned to the levels that existed pre-construction–two lanes in each direction with SB and NB turn lanes.

  November 2008 --- The total project should be completed, with only landscaping and traffic signal work lagging into May of 2009.

LAKE FOREST POLICE TO ENFORCE NO PARKING AT THE CUL DE SAC ON FIELD DRIVE

Effective Monday, June 16, Lake Forest police will begin vigorously enforcing the no parking zone at the north end of Field Drive.

*******************************

FIELD DR. & FIELD CT. TRAFFIC OFFICER DETAIL DISCONTINUED

Effective Monday, June 16, the special traffic officer details at Field Dr. and Field Ct. will be discontinued.

With the reopening of the Rt. 60 Bridge over this coming weekend, the expectation is that the roadway and intersections will handle more traffic volume and adjustment to the traffic signals can adequately control the flow.

*******************************

SOUTH BOUND FIELD DRIVE LANE STRIPING

Effective today, Thursday June 12, new lane striping and new signage will be installed, indicating 2 distinct lanes for Field Drive and one lane onto Field Court. The work zone has been moved further south, so vehicles on Field Drive south to Rt. 60 will no longer need to change lanes. All drivers heading west on Rt. 60 should stay in the west Field Drive lane and those headed east on Rt. 60 should use the east Field Drive lane to Field Court.

Traffic Lane Shifts Begin on North Tri State Tollway

There will be a traffic shift  for work on the North Tri-State beginning tomorrow (May 22) between Dempster Street and the Wisconsin state line.

To accommodate the northbound traffic shift, the exit ramp from the southbound I-94 to U.S. 41 will close for the rest of the construction season.

See the attached map showing southbound US 41 ramp detour.
