Navigating the 3-year Kennedy Expressway construction project in Chicago.

The Illinois Department of Transportation will close two left-hand inbound lanes of the Kennedy Expressway in Chicago from the Edens Expressway to Ohio Street, causing extensive delays. Drivers should consider traveling at off-peak times, taking public transportation, or using alternative routes such as North Milwaukee Avenue or North Elston Avenue. Public transportation options include the Metra Union Pacific North, Milwaukee District North, North Central Service, and Union Pacific Northwest lines, as well as the CTA Blue Line with some disruptions to weekend service due to construction.
