A significant improvement can be made in the <br /> ride of a concrete street if the load carrying capacity of its joints are maintained or, as in the case <br /> of this proposed project, restored. This project involves removing deteriorated joints at the <br /> following locations and reinstalling them in accordance with State and City Standards. This <br /> project will also include the replacement of adjacent curb and gutter sections as necessary. <br /> Project Locations <br /> . <br /> Hubbard Avenue from Woodford to Illinois Rt. 48 <br /> Ravina Park Road from Illinois Route 48 to Summit <br /> 27th Street from Illinois Route 48 to Kyle <br /> Pershing Road from Illinois Route 48 to 27th Street <br /> 27th Street from William Street to U.S. Route 36 (proposed to be added) <br />
