<p><em><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"/>The effort to make the Lakefront Trail less congested by creating separate paths for cyclists and joggers will force a portion of the popular path to close starting May 22, city officials said.</em></p>
<p><em>The <strong>trail will be closed east of Lake Shore Drive between Diversey Parkway and North Avenue starting May 22</strong>, according to a statement from Mayor Rahm Emanuel's office. A marked detour will take trail users west of Lake Shore Drive, officials said.</em></p>
<p><em><strong>Construction will also take place from Oak to Ohio streets, where a lane will allow cyclists and joggers to navigate around the crews</strong>, officials said.</em></p>
