Addison, IL – Drivers in Addison and surrounding DuPage County communities should plan for delays today as several local roads are closed for scheduled utility repair work.
According to the Village of Addison, Addison Public Works is conducting a utility repair project on Wednesday, December 31, requiring multiple temporary road closures from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. The work is expected to impact residential streets and a portion of West Diversy Avenue, a commonly traveled east–west route.
The following closures are in effect during the work window:
- 643 W Diversy Ave: Work zone closed to all traffic
- Richard Court: Closed at Diversy Avenue
- La Londe Avenue (north of Wrightwood Avenue): Closed except for local traffic accessing La Londe addresses between 635–724 W Diversy Ave
- Diversy Avenue (west of Mill Road): Closed except for local traffic accessing 604–634 W Diversy Ave
Village officials say access will be maintained for residents within the affected zones, but through traffic will not be permitted. Motorists traveling through Addison, particularly those commuting between residential areas and nearby arterial roads, are encouraged to allow extra travel time.
Addison is located in DuPage County, just west of Chicago, and the closures may also affect drivers cutting through the area to avoid congestion on larger roadways.
Public works officials recommend using alternate routes and watching for posted detour signs throughout the day. No specific reopening time was provided beyond the planned 4 p.m. completion window, and work schedules may change depending on conditions.
Residents with questions about access or detours are encouraged to contact the Village of Addison or monitor official village social media channels for updates.
