Current Road District Projects
Oak Spring Road Bridge
On June 27th, the Oak Spring Road Bridge was opened to the public. This project was far more than a standard infrastructure improvement—it was the product of over a decade of coordination, innovation, and unwavering dedication to community needs. We remained eligible for federal and state funding while navigating complex environmental and structural challenges.
The completed structure—delivered on time, within budget, and with minimal environmental disruption—now serves as a vital corridor for residents, emergency vehicles, and forest preserve visitors alike. Despite a total project cost of $5.6 million, the Township’s final share was just $235,000 thanks to the team’s expert funding coordination.
The Oak Spring Road Bridge project exemplifies the very best of civil engineering: technical excellence, environmental stewardship, and public benefit.

Permit Forms
Right of Way Permits
To ensure the quality of work and to protect township residents from liability for damage to township property, a Libertyville Township Highway Department Right of Way permit is needed for any construction in the unincorporated area that might affect the public right of way. The township may require a cash or surety bond from the homeowner prior to issuance of the permit. This permit may be in addition to a permit required by Lake County Planning, Building & Development Department.
Types of projects:
Driveway repaving, culvert replacement, new home construction, new garage, fence installation, septic replacement, well drilling and swimming pool construction.
Permits can be submitted either by email to:
