Lane closures on Golf Road bridge in Hoffman Estates

Lane closures will begin this week on the structure that carries Golf Road over Poplar Creek west of Route 59 in Hoffman Estates for a bridge repair project, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation.

The bridge over Poplar Creek will be reduced to one lane in each direction.

Traffic will be shifted to the outside of the bridge to allow for work to be completed on the center of the bridge. Turn lanes will be maintained from Golf Road to Route 59. Motorists should use Higgins Road as an alternate route.

The project is expected to be completed this summer.

Motorists can expect delays and should be extra cautious and allow more time for trips through this area.
