KUB and its contractor want to remind the public that in order to facilitate safe working conditions as work is performed on the utility infrastructure of Lakeshore Park, there will be a partial closure of the greenway the week of June 8-12.

The section of greenway that will be closed is a 300-foot segment located near the South Northshore Drive entrance, and all other portions of the park and greenway will remain open.

In the event of inclement weather, this work will be moved to the following week, June 15-19. 

To familiarize greenway users with the upcoming changes, signs were placed at key locations throughout the park on Friday, May 29.

These locations included both the South Northshore Drive and Lyons View Pike park entrances, the parking areas near the ball fields within the park, and at the north and sound ends of the greenway section to be closed.

The impacted section of greenway will be closed continuously throughout the duration of the work. KUB asks park patrons to please respect the signage and barricades in place, and to avoid this section of greenway due to ongoing excavation, as well as the presence of construction equipment, vehicles, and workers.
