The Illinois Department of Transportation has begun removing the asphalt surface on Waukegan Road between Henley Street in Glenview and Emerson Street in Morton Grove. This work will require intermittent daytime lane closures while this work is in progress and is expected to last through next week.

Access to side streets and businesses within the work zone will be maintained throughout construction.

The public can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. Alternate routes are encouraged. 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.

The Illinois Department of Transportation and their contractor are responsible for all aspects of this improvement. You may contact the Village of Morton Grove Department of Public Works at 847-470-5235 for any questions about the work proposed in the Village of Morton Grove.

🎶 Workin’ 9 to 5… staying safe all the time! 🎶

It’s 9-2-5 Day, so we’re taking a little inspiration from Dolly Parton and putting a safety spin on the workday. 💅👮‍♀️

Whether you’re punching the clock, dropping the kids at school, running errands, or just trying to make it through the day without spilling your coffee, remember:

🚗 Drive safe. Buckle up, slow down, and keep your eyes on the road.
📱 Stay alert. Put the phone down and give driving your full attention.
🔒 Lock it up. Secure your home, vehicle, and valuables.
👀 Keep an eye out. Stay aware of your surroundings and look out for your neighbors.

Because around here, 9 to 5 is just the start—we’re working around the clock to help keep our community safe. 👮‍♂️🚔

Happy 9-2-5 Day! And remember… safety never goes out of style. 💖
