Work will resume on the Morrison Bridge June 19. Crews have removed the concrete barriers on the bridge and installed cones and barricades. This allows workers to begin grinding the pavement for resurfacing. Despite the removal of the concrete barriers, the existing lane configuration remains the same this week and motorists are reminded to use caution in construction zones. The bridge is closed to all traffic from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday through Friday nights.
Traffic is restricted to one lane in each direction on the south side at all other times.
The bridge is closed to bicyclists and pedestrians during this phase of work. Overnight lane closures will be in place early next week on I-5 from Lombard to Alberta both north and southbound. Intermittent ramp closures at Lombard and Alberta will also occur. Flaggers will be present at the top of all closed on-ramps to assist motorists and allow emergency vehicles access to the freeway. All lane and ramp closures begin after 7 p.m. and end by 6a.m.
