AURORA, Ill. – State Rep. Stephanie Kifowit, D-Oswego, talked with local residents about ongoing road projects and future infrastructure improvement plans at a recent Area Road Construction Update meeting.

“With summer just around the corner, it means there will be more road construction projects occurring around the area,” Kifowit said. “It’s important for motorists to know where these projects are going to take place so they can plan accordingly. While road construction can be inconvenient, these projects will help us create good paying jobs and keep roadways safe for our families.”

Kifowit was joined by representatives from both the Illinois Department of Transportation and the City of Aurora who discussed road construction projects taking place in the area. Attendees also had the opportunity to provide their feedback on the current conditions of local roadways, and recommended areas in need of improvement.
