Plan to Boost South Lake Shore Drive Spending on Chicago’s South Side
The City and State outline a five year investment exceeding 97 million dollars for South Lake Shore Drive and feeder roads. Key projects include a 12 million reconstruction between 53rd and 60th, a 10 million Beachwall at 57th, widening a planted median 47th to 53rd, and safety improvements at 47th Street. State and city officials cite funding constraints and flexibility as projects are reviewed annually.
