BRADLEY ROAD BRIDGE LONG-TERM CLOSURE SCHEDULED TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK OVER THE NORTH TRI-STATE TOLLWAY (I-94) IN LAKE COUNTY
Extended closures needed through September for local crossroad bridge reconstruction
Full closure of the Bradley Road Bridge carrying traffic over the North Tri- State Tollway (I-94) in Lake County is scheduled to begin next week for bridge reconstruction. The bridge is scheduled to remain closed through September.
Electronic message signs and construction signage will be put in place in advance to alert drivers to the bridge closure and posted detour.
In 2018, the Illinois Tollway will rebuild the Bradley Road Bridge carrying traffic over I-94 to replace the existing bridge built in the 1950s and provide a new longer and wider bridge to provide two, 12-foot lanes and 8-foot shoulders. Up to 4,500 vehicles use the Bradley Road Bridge daily.
Weather permitting, on Wednesday, May 30, the bridge will close and a detour will be posted directing Bradley Road traffic along Rockland Road (Illinois Route 176), St. Mary’s Road and Town Line Road.
