Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle joined Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi and other elected officials today to celebrate $500,000 in funding secured by the congressman through federal Community Project Funding for a vital project along Central Road in Hoffman Estates and South Barrington.
“Cook County is extremely grateful to Rep. Krishnamoorthi for his support of our work to ensure that the County’s infrastructure provides our residents with a high quality of life and allows businesses to thrive,” said President Preckwinkle. “These funds will help the County’s Department of Transportation and Highways bring the Central Road reconstruction project forward more quickly.”
“By making improvements to Central Road and adding to South Barrington’s and Hoffman Estates’ vast multi-use path network, we are connecting our communities while making them even safer for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists,” Congressman Krishnamoorthi said. “The funding I secured will improve the quality of life for residents of Hoffman Estates and the surrounding community, and I am grateful to President Preckwinkle and Mayors McLeod and McCombie for their leadership and support for this project.”
The 1.3-mile project will replace the pavement on Central Road with one 12-foot-wide through lane in each direction divided by a 16-foot-wide mountable median, as well as a new enclosed stormwater system.
