Eisenhower Advisory Committee:

The I-290 Eisenhower Citizen Advisory Committee provides input to the Village Board and serves as a conduit of information to the community regarding the Illinois Department of Transportation's study to add high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes to Interstate 290, the Eisenhower Expressway. Committee members include residents who are experts in transportation, law, historic preservation and the environment. If you require assistance to participate in any Village program or activity, contact the ADA Coordinator at 708.358,5430 or e-mail adacoordinator@oak-park.us at least 48 hours before the scheduled activity.
