Wacker Drive Construction
Stage 4 Temporary Bus Reroutes

Effective
Saturday, June 16, 2012

Overview

This stage of Wacker Drive reconstruction will affect Wacker Drive from south of Monroe to north of Van Buren streets, including traffic crossing Wacker, Adams, and Jackson. This results from the reopening of Monroe and the temporary closure of Jackson. In the coming weeks, more information will become available on upcoming service changes.

 

Other, related street impacts
  • Monroe will reopen across Wacker.
  • Jackson will be closed across Wacker.
  • Adams will continue to be closed across Wacker
  • Franklin will continue to be a two-way street.
  • Southbound access from Lower Wacker to Upper Wacker at Randolph will continue to be closed to all traffic.
  • Access to/from Congress will continue to be closed to traffic from Wacker.
