LaGrange Road Will Be Done By Thanksgiving, Mayor Says

ORLAND PARK, IL — You never thought you'd see the day — and you haven't yet, but it's coming.

All lanes of LaGrange Road will be open by Thanksgiving. (No, we're not kidding.)

Orland Park Mayor Dan McLaughlin announced the news last week during a telephone town hall meeting. The $100 million project to widen LaGrange to three lanes from 131st to 179th streets has taken years, and some $15 million in enhancements along the road in both directions will continue into next year.

But you'll be driving a fully reopened LaGrange—including turn lanes!—by late November.
