The Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) announced it will be conducting pavement repairs on North DuSable Lake Shore Drive (DLSD) beginning Monday, May 13, as part of its 2024 Arterial Resurfacing program. Pavement patching and other roadway repairs will occur throughout May and June in advance of resurfacing that is scheduled to take place in the fall.

The first phase of the project is expected to last until late June and will impact the following sections of North DLSD:

• Northbound lanes from Lawrence Avenue to Hollywood Avenue
• Southbound lanes from Hollywood Avenue to LaSalle Drive

Upcoming lane closures:

From May 13 to May 17, two northbound lanes between Lawrence and Hollywood Avenues will be closed to traffic daily from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. One lane will remain closed continuously throughout the week.

From May 20 to May 24, two southbound lanes between Hollywood Avenue and LaSalle Drive will be closed to traffic daily from 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM. One lane will remain closed continuously throughout the week.

Additional updates on lane closures will be provided throughout the duration of the project as work progresses. Traffic updates will also be available at chicago.gov/CDOT.

Please note that lane closure schedules and work timings are subject to change due to weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances.

CDOT advises drivers to plan ahead and allow extra time when traveling on DLSD, to take alternate routes if possible, and encourages people to use public transportation. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to flaggers and construction signage when entering and driving near work zones, obey the posted speed limits, drive with extra caution, and be alert for workers and equipment.
