FRANKFORT, IL — More than 20 streets within the village limits of Frankfort will be resurfaced this summer after the village board recently approved a contract to the P.T. Ferro Construction Company for the 2021 roadway maintenance program. Over the course of the next fiscal year, the village has budgeted more than $4 million in its general capital development fund for the resurfacing and maintenance of municipal streets. Streets and roads are evaluated and selected for repaving based on several factors to ensure the ongoing quality of local streets, the village said in a news release. Projects include patching, replacement of defective curbs and sidewalks, edge grinding, drainage structure adjustments and an asphalt overlay of the entire street, the release said. Frankfort Mayor Keith Ogle said the village is able to fund additional public infrastructure improvement projects, such as needed street repairs, because of the 1 percent non-home sales tax referendum which was approved by local voters in 2018. Work is expected to begin in mid-July and is slated to be completed by Oct.21, the village said. The following village streets are scheduled to be improved during that time: Pioneer Court – Pioneer Trail to North End Hinspeter Drive – Wolf Road to Stoll Road Chestnut Drive – Nebraska Street to Sauk Trail Pacific Street – Maple Street to East End Ironwood Drive – Cedar Lane to West End Lincoln Lane – Cedar Lane to Butternut Trail 78th Avenue – Route 30 to Woodvale Road LaPorte Meadows Drive – St. Francis Road to Wildflower Drive Amherst Court – Misty Falls Lane to East End Falls View Way – 116th Avenue to Merritton Road Merritton Road – Falls View Way to Stoll RoadMisty Falls Lane – Amherst Court to Falls View Way Southwick Court – Southwick Drive to East End Southwick Drive – Laraway Road to Harlem Avenue Walnut Creek Drive – St. Francis Road to Huckins Drive Steger Road – Center to East 3800' S. 88th Avenue – Stuenkel Road to North 4000' Stuenkel Road – S. 88th Avenue to West 2000' N. 88th Avenue – St. Francis Road to LaPorte Road (Less 600') Oakton Court – Oakton Avenue to West End Oakton Drive – Princeton Circle to Heritage Drive Home Court – Laura Lane to North End Laura Lane – Hinspeter Drive to Patrick Court
