Many of JKL's projects, through park districts and municipalities, include the development of playgrounds and parks for various activities.  With each recreational facility, JKL reviews construction impacts and adjusts the project to allow continued use of the park as improvements are installed.

Working closely with park district personnel, we meet the needs of the design committees and landscapers to achieve effective, safe, long-lasting solutions and to provide cost-efficient and timely results for each project.

          These walking and jogging paths in Mount Prospect and Des Plaines are constructed on Commonwealth Edison's stretch of land from the northwest tollway past Mount Prospect road.  They allow pedestrian access from the park district buildings to several parks and baseball fields, spanning well over two miles.  Among its recent improvements have been new sealcoating and striping along its length.

          This bridge, a reconstruction project for the Village of Mount Prospect, serves as one of two pedestrian walks between the two sides of Weller Creek.  It not only serves as a convenient path for walkers wishing to cross to the other side of the park, but it also provides a route for children walking to school.  The reconstruction replaced an aging, unsafe bridge.  Our engineers worked with the village of Mount Prospect and the contractors to ensure that minimal vegetation destruction occured.  Like most of our projects, our work here provided the community with a safe, long-lasting, and convenient improvement to the park and recreation system of Mount Prospect.
