As part of the Larkin Avenue Water Main Improvement Project, new water main must be constructed along Glenwood Avenue between Woodlawn Avenue and Larkin Avenue.
The work to construct the new water main on this stretch of Glenwood Avenue is to begin on Monday, April 6, 2026. East and west traffic on Glenwood Avenue from Woodlawn Avenue to Larkin Avenue will be maintained, however traffic patterns will be affected daily, and flaggers will be in place at certain times during the construction of the new water main system. All work, including pavement restoration, is anticipated to be complete by June 12, 2026. Drivers are encouraged to seek alternative routes for the duration of the work.
We appreciate your patience and ask that you drive slowly and cautiously through any construction zone. Information about the project can be found by visiting www.joliet.gov/construction-zone. If you have any questions, please contact the Public Utilities Department at (815) 724-4220.
