Peterson Road widening project continues in Libertyville, Grayslake

The $10.8 million Lake County road construction project on Peterson Road continues in portions of Grayslake and Libertyville.

The work will widen Peterson Road to four lanes with left-turn lanes at intersections from near Harris Road to west of Route 83.

The project involves widening nearly 1.3 miles of Peterson Road from Franklin Boulevard to west of Route 83 to four lanes, with a fifth lane where needed. About three-quarters of a mile of Route 83 on either side of Peterson also will be improved, and the intersection will be upgraded to include two through lanes, dual left-turn lanes and a right-turn lane in each direction.

A landscaped median and bike path on the north side of the road also are in the plan.
