Construction on the Kennedy Expressway is set to begin Monday, likely causing major delays for drivers for nearly three years

The $150 million project will take place along a 7.5-mile stretch from the split at I-94 south to Ohio Street, and at the massive underpass near Hubbard Street downtown. It will include rehabbing 36 bridges and the highway’s reversible express lane access system, replacing overhead signs, upgrading lighting, paving and painting.

Later in 2023, work will begin to paint and install new LED lighting at the large Hubbard Street underpass between Ohio and Lake streets, known as Hubbard’s Cave. Construction will move to the reversible express lanes in spring 2024, which will remain closed while bridges and the express lane access system are rehabilitated and pavement is patched. Some regular, non-express lanes will also remain closed while lighting installation and painting continues at Hubbard’s Cave.

In spring 2025, work is set to begin on the outbound lanes, where two will be closed at a time, lanes will shift and some ramps will close. The express lanes in the center of the highway will remain open in the outbound direction.Crews will begin setting up the first work zone next week, reducing the inbound Kennedy to two lanes. They will put up barriers from the north end of the construction zone, near the I-94 split, and move south to Ohio Street, working overnight from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
