Glendale Heights, IL – Drivers traveling through Glendale Heights should expect partial delays this week as construction activity impacts a key local roadway.
According to the Glendale Heights Police Department and Village officials, President Street will be partially closed north of North Avenue during the week of January 19, 2026. The affected area is near the Monroe and Mark Apartments, where crews will be working as part of an ongoing infrastructure project.
Officials say the partial road closure will only be in effect during work hours, allowing traffic to resume normal flow outside of construction times. Flaggers will be stationed on site to assist with traffic movement and help guide drivers safely through the area.
The work is tied to the West Burdette Gravity Sanitary Sewer Improvements project, a multi-phase effort aimed at upgrading aging sewer infrastructure in the area. While the project is necessary for long-term system reliability, residents and commuters are advised to plan ahead for potential slowdowns.
Drivers are encouraged to use caution when traveling through the work zone and to consider alternate routes when possible, especially during peak daytime hours. Increased construction activity and lane restrictions may result in short delays.
Village officials note that schedules may vary depending on weather and construction progress. Motorists should remain alert for posted signage and follow directions from flaggers at all times.
Residents with questions or concerns about the closure or the sewer improvement project can contact Glendale Heights Public Works at 630-260-6040 for additional information.
