Ciorba Group provided preliminary, final design and construction engineering services for the reconstruction of Front Street from Wolf Road to School House Road through the Central Business District of the Village of Mokena. The Village’s goal was to replace the aging infrastructure and provide a streetscape that would enhance economic development in their historical downtown district. The landscaping for this project made the most of limited space by providing trees along the sidewalk and developing focal points where more extensive landscaping could be completed. Decorative sidewalk and roadway lighting replaced the existing lighting to further enhance the aesthetic quality of the project and improve safety of motorists and pedestrians.
