As the area continues to grow, the Kendall County Highway Department is eyeing improvements to Ridge Road from Caton Farm to Plainfield roads.

The project is on the heels of a project to improve Ridge Road from Holt Road to Black Road.

Last year, the Kendall County Board approved a preliminary engineering agreement with Hutchison Engineering, Inc. for the project.

Area residents can find out more about the project by attending a public information meeting in May.

The meeting will be held from from 5 to 7 p.m. May 20 in the cafeteria at Plainfield South High School, 7800 Caton Farm Road, Plainfield.

The purpose of the meeting is to:

• Introduce the study.

• Describe the project development process.

• Solicit public input on transportation needs.

• Provide information on additional public involvement opportunities.

The meeting will be accessible to handicapped individuals. Anyone needing special assistance should contact Luke Zeller at lzeller@hutchisoneng.com.

Those attending the meeting should enter Door N.

All correspondence regarding the project study should be sent to: Hutchison Engineering, Inc., 605 Rollingwood Drive, Shorewood, IL. 60404 or by email at lzeller@hutchisoneng.com.
