Concrete pours are complete for the new Nippersink Blvd. retaining wall

The contractors completed the installation of numerous reinforcement bars, and then they framed and poured concrete for the remaining sections of the new retaining wall along the east side of Nippersink Boulevard.

Next week, weather permitting, the contractor plans to remove the framing on the remainder of the retaining wall and continue the remaining sidewalk along the east side of Nippersink Boulevard. They also anticipate completing the remaining work at the Metra Station.

Motorists should expect minor delays as the roadway work progresses along Nippersink Boulevard. Please refrain from cell phone use and be alert when traveling through the work zones.
