PROJECT COMPLETION

CHANGE IN TRAFFIC STARTS APRIL 11TH

Detour route in place​ starting April 11th! Checker Road west of Arlington Heights Road will be limited to one lane of eastbound traffic within the project limits. Access to businesses west of Arlington Heights Road will be detoured to use Schaeffer Road. This configuration will last for several weeks while the storm sewers and road are constructed in that area. Please refer to the map above for the detour route. 

PROJECT BACKGROUND

The Lake County Division of Transportation (LCDOT) is reconstructing Arlington Heights Road, from IL 83 to Lake Cook Road for 1.5 miles in the villages of Buffalo Grove, Long Grove and unincorporated Lake County.
​
The project will replace pavement that was originally built in 1980 and has now reached the end of its useful life. The reconstruction will consist of removing the existing concrete, installing a new aggregate base and replacing the roadway pavement with brand new asphalt. The purpose of the project is to not only address the roadway condition but to also improve safety and provide a more accessible roadway for pedestrians, motorists and all other users in the community.
