Kenilworth is considering plans to change the parking around the village’s Metra train station and scrapping the proposal to close Sterling Road just south of Green Bay Road, Chicago Tribune reported.

The Green Bay Road Transportation and Streetscape Plan will focus on major areas such as opening small retailers in Kenilworth Train Station and increasing the total number of parking spaces on Richmond Road in front of Village Hall to 49 spaces from 34.

Details of the streescape proposal will be presented at the next meeting with more definitive designs and the Green Bay bike trail would be discussed at the July meeting, the newspaper reported.
