West Dundee - Thursday evening March 26, 2009, the Longmeadow Corridor Toll Bridge Task-force will hold a public hearing on the merits of building the bridge.
The plan is to connect Rt. 62, east of Rt. 25 to Huntley Road, west of Randall Road. This will most likely be the last chance for the public to be heard on this bridge issue before final approval is sought to move ahead on its construction.
This purposed bridge will have an impact on Carpentersville neighborhoods more so than any other community. It is being presented as a solution to traffic congestion on Rt. 62 and Rt. 72. Although traffic studies have indicated that this new toll bridge would have minimal effect on current traffic problems.
This will be an “open house” style forum where you will be allowed to make comments between the hours of 4 pm until 8 pm. This public hearing will be held at Randall Oaks Club House, located just west of Randall Road on Binnie Road. Please come out and be heard on this important topic. This is your chance to make your feelings known. Whether you support the bridge or oppose it, come and be heard. Anything this important must have public input.
