Road Work Planned for Plum Grove

The Palatine Village Council at its meeting Monday approved bids for several road projects including the resurfacing of part of Plum Grove Road.

The work will include the widening of Plum Grove Road from Russet Way to Cunningham Drive. Palos Avenue will be widened between Autumn Road and Dundee Road.

Chicagoland Paving Contractors of Lake Zurich were awarded the project with a bid of $368,402.

"The work goes a little beyond a standard resurfacing," said Village Engineer Michael Danecki.

For example, Danecki said that curb and gutter also will be added along Plum Grove Road and drainage will be upgraded. Danecki said work should begin at the end of this month. He said that there should not be any lane closures associated with the work.

There also will be some work done on Oak Street between Gilbert Road and Glade Road. Danecki said Oak Street will be separated and will dead-end, with turnarounds being added on both sides of the separated street.
