The Illinois Department of Transportation will begin work to replace the bridge that carries Francis Road over Interstate 80 in New Lenox on Monday, weather permitting.
Francis Road will be fully closed between Silver Cross Boulevard and Gordon Street, said IDOT.
A detour will direct traffic to Cedar Road, U.S. ROUTE 30 (Lincoln Highway) and Gougar Road. The public also should expect occasional overnight lane closures on I-80 at Francis Road, IDOT said.
The $5.3 million project is anticipated to be completed in December.
