Oak Park, IL – Drivers in Oak Park should prepare for multiple road closures and traffic restrictions this Sunday morning, Oct. 19, as the Park District of Oak Park hosts its annual Frank Lloyd Wright Races.
According to the Oak Park Police Department, streets along the race route will be closed from about 7:30 to 11 a.m., with some roads open only for one-way travel. Police are asking residents and visitors to observe all posted “No Parking” signs and allow extra travel time to navigate around the area.
Officers will be stationed at key intersections to help drivers safely cross the course, including Ridgeland Avenue and Superior Street; Oak Park Avenue and Ontario Street; Oak Park Avenue and Division Street; and Division Street and Lombard Avenue.
The event, which draws hundreds of runners each year, typically causes short-term traffic delays throughout central Oak Park. Local residents are encouraged to plan alternate routes or use public transit when possible.
