The Village is committed to the completion of the John Humphrey Drive at 143rd Street Dry Land Bridge Expansion to address the existing deficiency of settling roadway bridge pavement for the east leg westbound of this intersection. The Village was awarded $1,500,000 in Surface Transportation Program (STP) grant funding for Phase III Construction Engineering and Construction in FY24. the completion of the John Humphrey Drive at 143rd Street Dry Land Bridge Expansion improvements will reduce travel delays and improve safety at this heavily traveled intersection. The project will improve mobility and community access to La Grange Road and the Orland Square Mall regional shopping center.
The Village's consultant, Patrick Engineering, will apply for STP-L funding for this project on behalf of the Village for Phase III Construction Engineering and Construction.
If the project is funded by STP-L, a resolution will be required to commit Village funds for the local match.
