2 westbound lanes at Randolph and Wacker to reopen

There will be some relief for people driving through Chicago's West Loop this Memorial Day weekend.

Crews are reopening some streets closed for the Wacker reconstruction project. The city shut down the intersection of Randolph and Wacker in April. This allowed crews to start rebuilding the first of seven downtown intersections in the $3 million project.

On Thursday, the city announced its reopening of two westbound lanes at Randolph before rush hour Friday.
