OLDER INFORMATION
NOVEMBER 8, 2023
The vertical wick drain installation should start Monday, November 13. These drains help water migrate out of the soils below the new roadway and multi-use path as we add embankment. The new roadway base will compress the soils below and force water up and out. We will also install a series of concrete grout columns along the east side of Rodenburg to further support the new embankments. Once those two tasks are done, you will see trucks filled with clay embankment material and compaction equipment as we build those new slopes. ComEd’s team moved to their underground vault at Timberleaf Circle North this week. They will have Timberleaf Circle North closed completely during their workdays and open to one lane of traffic to exit westbound overnight and on weekends.

NOVEMBER 2, 2023
We have completed the working platforms on the east and west sides of Rodenburg. Our next steps involve the installation of vertical ‘wick’ drains to help water migrate out of the soils below the new roadway and multi-use path as we add embankment. The new roadway base will compress the soils below and force water up and out. We expect to see the ground improvement team on site with their larger equipment sometime after November 6.

Expect to see a few days of work along the west side of Rodenburg to complete the working platform for the ground improvements contractor over the next week. We expect to see that team with their larger equipment sometime after November 6. We will continue to have daily lane closures, so please use extra caution in our work zone. ComEd’s team will move from the vault just north of the tracks to the vault at Timberleaf Circle North early next week. They will likely have Timberleaf Circle North closed completely during their workdays and reopen for overnight and weekends to one-lane traffic to exit westbound.

OCTOBER 19, 2023
Even with more than three inches of rainfall at the end of last week, we have seen some progress. We have completed the ground improvement platform along the east side of Rodenburg. This is the base that the ground improvements contractor will use to install drains and support columns. We have moved to the west side to build the same type of platform there. We will continue to have daily lane closures to support this work. Please use extra caution in our work zone. ComEd’s teams continue rebuilding an underground vault just north of the tracks; when they finish that work, they will move to the vault at Timberleaf Circle North.

The utility contractors completed their most important relocation work this week. We may have to ask ComEd to relocate one more pole, but we are working together with the utility and the contractor to avoid that. One last telecommunications team needs to relocate their cables on the west side of Rodenburg. ComEd’s teams continue rebuilding an underground vault just north of the tracks. When they finish that work, they will move to the vault at Timberleaf Circle North.
