Main Street Paving: St. Charles Road to Graham

Asphalt preparation and final paving work for the Main Street Improvements project are scheduled to begin Monday, July 13, and continue through the week.

Paving will begin at St. Charles Road and continue to Graham Avenue, and slow-moving construction equipment will work within closed lanes. One travel lane in each direction will remain open throughout the paving process and please exercise caution within the work zone. Additional project information is available at www.villageoflombard.org/main, and the Village appreciates your patience during this improvement project. 

Upcoming Public Works Projects 

• The Village will be investigating the sanitary sewer systems in specific areas beginning the week of July 20th. Non-toxic smoke will be used to identify leaks and residents may witness the smoke. 
  
  
• Parking lots at 115 W. St. Charles and at 23 W. Maple Street will be resurfaced beginning mid-July. For updates, follow the Village on Facebook and Twitter. 

The Village understands that construction impacts traffic and we apologize for any inconvenience that motorists have experienced due to the construction activity. This temporary inconvenience allows the Village to improve roadways, update infrastructure, and invest into the Lombard community for years to come.
