Locust Avenue Construction Begins, Repaving to be Complete Before School Returns

FREEPORT, IL – Helm Group contractors will officially begin work on South Locust Avenue in Freeport, IL starting Thursday, June 27 depending on weather.

This work includes a variety of updates on water mains and sewer as well as a complete repaving of the street. The project is anticipated to be complete before the start of the school year.

Locust Avenue will be closed during daytime work hours and will be opened to the public in the evening. The work will move from South Street all the way to Lincoln Boulevard.

Road closed signs give crews the proper space and safety to work. Ignoring them could result in injury, project malfunction and more. The City asks that you pay attention to road closed signs and obey them with the utmost caution.
