Tree removal related to the Route 14 underpass project began on Monday, March 18, 2024. This work is taking place on property adjacent to the Library campus and parking lot. Library visitors may notice this work continuing for the next several days. Vehicles and machinery will also be staged in that area. Per the Library’s agreement with IDOT, that land is temporarily owned by IDOT as part of an easement for a period of five years.
Information on the underpass project can be found on the Village website at barrington-il.gov/underpass. A project-specific website is currently under development and will allow individuals to sign up for project updates.
