Lake Street Improvement Project Community Open House

Better Lake Street will hold a community open house meeting to provide the public with the opportunity to learn about the Lake Street Improvement Projects, which include streetscaping, utility work and resurfacing of Lake Street from Harlem Avenue to Austin Boulevard in 2020.

Village of Oak Park and construction staff will be available to explain the project and answer questions in an open house format that will enable members of the public to speak directly with project representatives.

The Lake Street Improvement Project is getting underway this year with the goals of improving traffic circulation and capacity, enhancing pedestrian and bicycle linkage between retail districts, replacing aging roadway and utilities, and strengthening Lake Street’s role as the community’s central tourism and retail corridor.
