Rumble strips in Highland Park keeping residents up at night spark complaint from Lake Co. state's attorney to Illinois Pollution Control Board.
There's no escaping the stentorian thunder of the Route 41 rumble strips, Highland Park residents say.
"More than 56,000 vehicles a day travel on U.S. 41 through the Park Avenue intersection," IDOT spokeswoman Maria Castaneda said."This particular location is the first intersection with traffic signals exiting the Edens Expressway, so the department is particularly sensitive to the need to alert drivers to pay attention to conditions, reduce speeds and prepare to stop."
For Nathanson"the only realistic hope I have is because they're asphalt -- it's a softer material -- and if I live long enough, maybe they'll get worn down." Meanwhile, a University of Illinois study found after installing the smaller rumble strips on Route 41 in 2022, decibel levels decreased.
