Construction to Close Main Street in Downtown Naperville

Main Street between Van Buren and Benton Avenues is expected to be closed through mid-August beginning Wednesday, July 24 for duct bank installation work. 

Drivers traveling through that portion of downtown Naperville are advised to be cautious of construction occurring in the area and allow extra time to reach their destination, according to the city.

The work is being done to increase electric reliability and prepare for the needs of future development in the area. Drivers are encouraged to follow detours that will be posted. Pedestrians will still be able to walk around the construction site on either side of Main Street.

Work will occur between 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., and the public should expect noise and dust in the area. The road is expected to reopen by mid-August, pending weather and unforeseen circumstances. Additional temporary lane closures on Van Buren Avenue at the beginning and end of the project will occur; flaggers will be on site during those times to assist motorists in maneuvering around the area.
