  • Southbound Kennedy Ramp to Westbound Eisenhower Closed This Weekend, for Ongoing Jane Byrne Interchange Improvement Project
    Southbound Kennedy ramp to westbound Eisenhower closed this weekend, for ongoing Jane Byrne Interchange Improvement Project The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) announced that the southbound Kennedy Expressway (Interstate 90/94) ramp to the westbound Eisenhower Expressway (Interstate 290) will be closed for the weekend, from Friday night, May 15, through Monday morning, May 18. The work is part of the ongoing Jane Byrne Interchange Improvement Project, which began in September 2013, and is slated to be completed in Summer 2018. In order to complete the work, the southbound to westbound ramp will close at 10 p.m. Friday evening, and reopen by 5 a.m. Monday. The closure of this ramp is necessary for the water main work near the Green Street corridor. The suggested detour during the closure of the southbound to westbound ramp will direct traffic to the southbound Dan Ryan Expressway (Interstate 90/94) to 18th Street exit ramp, to then turn left on 18th Street, to then turn left on Ruble St and re-enter the northbound Dan Ryan Expressway (Interstate 90/94) and use the north to west exit ramp to the westbound Eisenhower Expressway (Interstate 290). Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to flaggers and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits and be on the alert for workers and equipment. Find details on other construction projects in IDOT's District 1 at http://goo.gl/upgvZu. Traffic updates are available online at www.travelmidwest.com.
