Traffic lanes have been narrowed to one lane in each direction as part of a new traffic pattern on Aptakisic Road between Brandywyn Lane and Didier Farms. The new traffic pattern is needed to allow crews to begin culvert construction.
Temporary traffic signals have been installed at the intersections of Aptakisic Road and Buffalo Grove Road and Thompson Blvd and Buffalo Grove Road. Excavation work is beginning this week for temporary pavement on the west side of Buffalo Grove Road and medians between Aptakisic Road and Deerfield Pkwy.
Traffic Impacts: Be aware of the new traffic pattern on Aptakisic Road. Watch for workers and flaggers. Daily lane closures will be needed.

About the Project
Description: Buffalo Grove Road from Deerfield Pkwy to IL 22 will be completely reconstructed to provide two lanes of travel in each direction. This includes a center median and turn lanes at all major intersections. A new traffic signal will be installed at the intersection of Thompson Blvd. Crosswalks at each street crossing will be improved and upgraded to ADA standards.
Crews will also connect the bike path gap between Aptakisic Road and Brandywyn Lane making it easier for residents to walk and bike to local parks, schools and shopping areas.
Temporary lane closures may occur a few hours per day to complete major work.
Construction will take place over a two-year period using a staged approach:
-
North Section: Focused construction on Buffalo Grove Road from IL 22 to Aptakisic Road, with minor impacts south of Aptakisic.
-
South Section: Focused construction on Buffalo Grove Road from Aptakisic Road to Deerfield Pkwy. This includes intersection improvements at Buffalo Grove Road and Aptakisic Road, which will extend to slightly north of Aptakisic.
