2010 Street Rehabilitation Project

May 6, 2010

Streets included in the Village's 2010 pavement rehabilitation program are Windsor Drive, Wellington Court, Queens Way, Canterbury Drive, Kent Court, Whitby Circle, Whitby Court, Berwick Court, and Keswick Court.

This construction project is funded by the State Motor Fuel Tax and by local general funds. The Village awarded the contract to Curran Contracting based on their lowest price proposal as submitted at a public bid opening. The work will generally involve pavement and curb full-depth patching, storm sewer, pavement grinding, and asphalt resurfacing.

Curb and gutter replacement work has already begun, and some minor storm sewer improvements are scheduled to begin Monday, weather permitting. Depending upon which street you live, you may not notice work for several days. Work will be staged so that the street will be passable at all times. Curbs are usually replaced within a week of the time they are removed. Concrete needs 3 to 4 days "cure time" to gain strength before opening to traffic. While work is in progress, space for on-street parking will be reduced. Please try to park your vehicles off the street as much as possible. If repairs interrupt access to your driveway, please try to make arrangements to use a neighbor's driveway (you may be able to return the favor later). If you have to park on the street, do not park where you will block traffic - find a spot "between" patches or farther down the block where less work is being done. The police department is aware of this project and will not ticket vehicles for parking on the street within the project limits.

If you have an invisible dog fence cable or underground sprinkler system located near the curb or crossing under your driveway, please mark the location in a manner which will alert the contractor so extra careful attention can be given to protect your systems. The Village will not be responsible for damage to these or other encroachments in the Right-of-Way.

Pavement grinding and resurfacing will follow the curb replacement. The project is scheduled for completion by mid-June, weather permitting.

During this project, there will be large equipment and trucks traveling on these streets. Please talk to your children about the dangers of playing near excavations, equipment, and material stockpiles. With your patience and cooperation, the project will proceed smoothly.

We will try to keep you updated as work progresses. If you have any questions, please contact Rob Horne, Engineering Supervisor, at 847.913.2366 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. For problems that develop after hours, you may call the Police non-emergency number at 847.883.9900 and they will contact the proper personnel for follow-up. Thank you for your cooperation.
