As part of drilling being done to collect soil samples, contractors have narrowed the northbound lanes along South Yale Avenue, between East 71st and East 81st Streets.
This drilling is part of a future rehabilitation project on the retaining walls along South Yale. Over time, small amounts of movement have created gaps between the sidewalk and curb in some areas. The rehabilitation project will help stabilize the retaining walls and prevent further movement, reducing the need for ongoing repairs.
Lanes will remain narrowed until Friday, Oct. 9. During the drilling, drivers are encouraged to follow posted signage, use caution in the area, and allow extra travel time.
