111th St. Streetscape $7.9 Million Investment in Mt. Greenwood Corridor

WEEKLY UPDATE: Monday, March 25, 2024

  • Please see the schedule for the next two weeks below.  All work will be along the south side of 111th.
  • This week the contractor will be installing the underground electrical equipment.
  • Next week the contractor will continue installing the underground electrical equipment and will be replacing the ADA ramps.

The 111th Streetscape project began this past June and is approximately 25% complete.  The majority of the construction along the south side of 111th Street between Homan Avenue and Kedzie Avenue is nearing completion and includes new sidewalks, curb and gutter, sewer structures, bus pads, driveways, and alley aprons.  By mid-August it is anticipated that the contractor will shift to the north side of 111th Street between Homan Avenue and Kedzie Avenue.  A similar progression of work will occur along the north side as was done along the south side.  Traffic patterns on 111th Street will remain the same when the construction moves to the north side of the street; however, temporary parking restrictions will be in place on the north side of 111th Street as needed.   Tree planting along the new sidewalk will start this fall and continue next spring.  All of the existing street lights will be removed and replaced with new light poles in 2024.  The project is on schedule to be completed in spring 2024.  We encourage all interested business owners and residents to attend the virtual weekly construction meeting with questions or concerns regarding the project.

Please join me for our weekly construction review meeting for the S-0-439 111th Streetscape project.  Please use the Microsoft Teams call-in information below.

Starting May 10th, the Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) will break ground on a Streetscape improvement project on 111th Street from Homan Ave. (3400 W) to Sacramento Avenue (3000W). This project will extend the benefits of the previously completed Streetscape project on 111th Street from Central Park to Homan Ave. Through this project, 111th Street will be renovated with infrastructure upgrades and other decorative elements designed to make the area more pedestrian and business-friendly. The project will include:
