The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has substantially completed making ADA improvements along Route 31 in Geneva.
The project began last fall, and continued this spring at the following Route 31 intersections:
- North Street;
- Stevens Street;
- Ford Street;
- Peyton Street (including removal of sidewalk crossing);
- Hamilton Street (including removal of sidewalk crossing);
- State Street (Route 38);
- James Street;
- Campbell Street (including removal of southern sidewalk crossing);
- Franklin Street (including removal of sidewalk crossing); and
- Third Street.
The contractor has graded and capped all the corners with top soil with the exception of James, Campbell and State streets. The remaining three intersections are scheduled to be finished by late August, according to the State.
The project is being managed by IDOT, which also decided to remove the selected sidewalk crossings. The City of Geneva does not have jurisdiction on the matter given Route 31 is a state highway.
