The Chicago Department of Transportation is set to commence roadwork on Taylor Street, spanning from Western to Racine avenues. The project, which may start in the coming days, will involve street and bike lane resurfacing and restriping, as well as curb and gutter replacements and ADA sidewalk repairs. These activities are anticipated to impact vehicle, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic.
The construction is projected to conclude by the end of December. During this period, the City of Chicago may impose temporary street parking restrictions with No Parking signs. Traffic lanes are expected to remain open but could be limited to a single lane at times.
Flaggers will be present on-site during active work periods to manage traffic flow. Sidewalk closures might occur, necessitating alternate travel paths for pedestrians. Throughout the duration of the work, it is advised that roadway users and pedestrians exercise increased caution in the area.
