Pave Oak Park, a proposal commissioned in response to the ridiculous Cap the Ike study and "grassroots initiative," assesses the feasibility of paving over a large portion of Oak Park in order to add several additional lanes of traffic to the Eisenhower Expressway between Harlem Avenue and Austin Boulevard. Currently, the traffic constipation that occurs as the "Ike" passes through Oak Park creates a physical and psychological barrier between the suburbs to the west of Oak Park and the City of Chicago to the east. This website, which has no relationship whatsoever to the entities whose names and logos appear below, is intended to enlighten the public about the benefits of paving Oak Park. A map illustrating the Pave Oak Park project is available here, and an illustration of the new lane configurations and resulting effects on vehicular traffic flow is available here.
