The Village Manager or appropriate department heads personally respond to all questions and comments. Why was the additional third lane installed on Dundee Rd. Motorists sometimes use it as a fast lane to beat other traffic. Unfortunately, there are only two lanes to the east and west, meaning traffic must merge from three lanes to two. While this is not the ideal situation, IDOT determined this was the most effective approach to facilitate the large volumes of vehicles that use the intersection.
