The proposed pedestrian bridge over Rt. 83 in Cricket Creek Forest Preserve is now in Phase 2 design with construction beginning the winter of 2025 and completion anticipated for 2026. This bridge will improve nonmotorized access across Rt. 83. It will be a 10-foot-wide path with 3-foot grass connecting residents to Berens Park and the Salt Creek Greenway. Funding sources included the City of Elmhurst with grant funding from state and federal sources.
