Chicago entrance, exit ramps to reopen March 8

The entrance ramp from Seventy-First Street to the outbound Dan Ryan Expressway and the exit ramp from the outbound Dan Ryan Expressway to Seventy-Fifth Street in Chicago are scheduled to reopen Wednesday, March 8, the Illinois Department of Transportation said.

That same day, IDOT plans to close the entrance ramp from Seventy-Sixth Street to the outbound Dan Ryan Expressway and the exit ramp from the outbound Dan Ryan to Seventy-Ninth Street. Drivers also should continue to expect left-lane closures along Lafayette Avenue from Seventy-First to Seventy-Ninth Street; parking restrictions in that area will remain in effect.

IDOT is in the midst of a four-year, $600 million reconstruction project on the Dan Ryan Expressway from Thirty-First Street to Ninety-Fifth Street. For more information, visit www.danryanexpressway.com.
