UPDATE: Old McHenry Road to Close for Expedited Reconstruction and Intersection Improvements


Long Grove, IL – The Lake County Division of Transportation (LCDOT) will be closing Old McHenry Road to all through traffic starting Tuesday Oct. 9, 2018 at 6 a.m. and anticipate reopening to all traffic in November. The closure is necessary as part of the Old McHenry Road reconstruction and intersection improvements project at Robert Parker Coffin Rd. Downtown Long Grove businesses will remain open and accessible during this project.  This change is necessary to expedite reconstruction by winter of the narrowest part of Old McHenry Rd from Archer Rd to Robert Parker Coffin Rd following utility delays earlier this year. For more information please visit the project website.

Detour Route: IL Route 22 to IL Route 83 to IL Route 53

Detour Route for Downtown Long Grove:  Local traffic will have access on Old McHenry Road from IL Route 22 and IL Route 53.  Old McHenry Road will be closed to all traffic between Robert Parker Coffin Road and Archer Road. The detour for local traffic on Old McHenry Rd will be Archer Road to Robert Parker Coffin Road.  Access to the Stempel Municipal Parking Lot will be maintained from Old McHenry Rd using some of the existing driveways at all times with additional access to Stempel via Robert Parker Coffin Road (by the bridge).  Follow the guide signs.
