State Parkway Resurfaced
I am very pleased to report the completion of the full resurfacing of the portion of State Parkway that lies in the 43rd Ward! The following locations have been fully repaired via my Aldermanic Menu Fund:
State Parkway, between Division Street and North Avenue.
State Parkway suffered quite a bit from last winter's storm:
State Parkway before resurfacing.

As you know, I continue to work with the City's Department of Transportation to initiate repairs to portions of the 43rd Ward that experienced substantial deterioration this winter. I will continue to keep local residents apprised of the status on these needed infrastructure improvements via my e-newsletter as we make continued progress in the coming weeks!
