95th St. detour this weekend

From 11:30 pm tonight to 11:30 pm Sunday night, 95th St. will be closed to traffic over the Dan Ryan. All types of traffic (pedestrian, car, bus, etc.) will be detoured. This is for a major step in the construction of the new 95th St. red line station.  Bus stops will be temporarily reconfigured.

At some point on Sunday, 2 large cranes will be used to lift the new skybridge into place to connect the north and south halves of the new station.

If you need to get to the Dan Ryan or points east, I'd recommend going another way unless you want to watch the construction. Traffic is likely to be a bit hairy in that area.
