- Reporter: Waterway Guide Staff

- Description:
Maintenance work will take place at the S Halstead St Bridge over the Calumet waterway from March 24, 2026, through September 1, 2026. During this period, scaffolding will be suspended under the bridge, hanging no more than 2-feet below low steel. The scaffolding will display steady burning yellow lights on the bottom and four corners to warn mariners of the temporary reduction in vertical clearance.
