Building demolition has been completed. Most of the trees and fence have been removed. Utility relocations should start this month and should be completed by April.
The general contractor, Lake County Grading, is scheduled to close the roads and implement a detour for 140 days starting in June. Depending on the weather, this date may be moved up into May.
The Darrell Road Project website is now being updated for current information on Phase II.

Phase II of the Darrell Road corridor improvement has begun. Currently, building and tree removal is occurring
The full improvement is broken down into 2 construction projects as shown here. The first (now completed) starts about 350′ south of the Case Rd. intersection, and ends about a quarter mile shy of the Dowell Rd. intersection.
The second part begins about 1,130 feet south of Dowell Rd. to about 700 feet north of Fisher Rd.
Dowell Road will be realigned to join Darrell Road with a roundabout eliminating the existing skewed intersection. The Fisher Road intersection with Darrell Road will also be improved by adding a roundabout to replace the existing 1 way stop controlled intersection. Construction will include a bike path between Fisher Road and Case Road/Neville Road and a portion will be a part of the Grand Illinois Trail.
