MENTS Public Works Director Glen Andler addressed questions from the Board, explaining that
lights will be placed on both sides of the roadway, every 200-300 feet, but should not
create problems for residents because of a back shield on each light which keeps the
light from shining on the homes.
Because the portion of Central Road to be improved runs through both Arlington Heights
and Mount Prospect, both municipalities, along with federal funding will share the cost.
