Traveling in Chicago

 

Can someone from Chicago please help me out. I traveled to Chicago this weekend. My Garmin 660 told me to exit Lake Shore Drive at lower Wacker Dr. My hotel was on upper Wacker. Once I got on lower Wacker (under upper Wacker) the gpsr lost satellite lock. Before losing lock it said exit on upper Wacker but I didn't have a clue as to how to get from lower Wacker to upper Wacker. How do you go from the lower roadways under Chicago to the upper roadways?

Thanks,

Over bridge...Under bridge

Is this the same GPSr that tried to get me to make a right turn off a bridge because my street was under it?

when you get off lake shore

when you get off lake shore dr onto lower wacker (heading west), there is a ramp on the right side of the lower wacker that takes you up to upper wacker. also, if you miss that ramp, you can turn left (north) on columbus drive, turn on the first right, and make a U turn up a ramp onto upper columbus and upper wacker.

i live on wacker/columbus (next to hyatt, if that was your hotel) and sometimes my nuvi 650's satellite is off. i think my apartment building is blocking some of the satellite signals, so i'm getting bad coordinates. sometimes it thinks i'm across the river when i'm not!

Asahi-

Thank you for the information. I was staying at the Hyatt and didn't have a clue how to get to upper Wacker. My Nuvi 660 lost satellite lock.
