Illinois 25 work in Aurora begins June 23

AURORA – The Illinois Department of Transportation announced that resurfacing of Illinois 25 from Hazel Avenue to just south of Sullivan Road in Aurora begins June 23. 

The work also includes improvements to curbs, gutters and sidewalk ramps and will require daily lane closures, with traffic controlled by flaggers, from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. This $4.2 million project is expected to be complete by the end of October. 

The public can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. Alternative routes are encouraged. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to flaggers and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits and be on the alert for workers and equipment. 

Over the next six years, IDOT is planning to improve more than 3,200 miles of highway and nearly 9 million square feet of bridge deck as part of Rebuild Illinois, which is investing $33.2 billion into all modes of transportation. Accomplishments through Year Five of Rebuild Illinois include approximately $16 billion of improvements statewide on 6,541 miles of highway, 686 bridges and 986 additional safety improvements.
