Troy, Illinois — A planned sewer lift-station repair will close part of Riggin Road in Troy Tuesday morning.

According to a notice from the City of Troy Public Works Department, Riggin Road will close at Reid Avenue beginning at 7 a.m. Tuesday, March 10, 2026, while crews perform maintenance on a sewer lift station in the area.

City officials said the work is expected to take one day to complete, with normal traffic access anticipated to return later that same day if repairs proceed as scheduled.

During the closure, through-traffic on Riggin Road will be rerouted to Nottingham Drive, with posted detour signs guiding drivers around the construction zone. The affected section sits within a residential neighborhood north of Eagles Way and south of Blue Bird Lane.

Local access for residents may remain limited while crews complete the repair work near the Riggin Road and Reid Avenue intersection.

The City of Troy said the temporary closure is necessary to complete infrastructure improvements tied to the municipal sewer system. Public works officials asked drivers to use caution around the work zone and follow posted detour routes.

The city also thanked residents for their patience during the short-term disruption.

The closure could affect local commuters and students traveling through neighborhood streets during morning hours, particularly during school and work travel times.

Residents with questions about the project or detour can contact the Troy Water and Sewer Department at 618-667-9924, extension 2, according to Public Works Director Robert Hancock.
