How Will You Avoid Construction?

With road construction , people have returned to their favorite shortcuts or developed new ones to navigate between Waukegan Road to the western Village limits.

Projects on Lake Cook and Half Day Roads will slow things up for people getting around town. The Lake Cook Road work is expected to last six weeks while the Half Day Road effort is scheduled for an August completion.

The intersection of Waukegan and Half Day Roads just north of will be particularly hard to navigate with sewer work occurring on both streets near that corner.

In the comments section of this story, please share your favorite way to avoid roadwork delays. What streets will you take? We have some ideas but know our readers who deal with it each day must have the best ideas.
