St. Charles Road Crosswalk Improvements Begin in April

The Village of Lombard will begin infrastructure improvements on St. Charles Road starting the week of April 7, 2025 (weather permitting). This project includes the installation of concrete crosswalks from Elizabeth Street to Craig Place and is expected to continue through late May.

Residents and businesses should expect temporary lane closures, street closures and detours throughout the construction period. Signage will be posted at least one week in advance to help guide traffic and pedestrians safely.

Help Keep Kids Safe on E-Scooters & E-Bikes

Longer days and warmer temps mean more kids riding e-scooters and e-bikes. However, injuries are on the rise, with e-scooters causing nearly half of all micromobility accidents.

Lombard Police encourage all parents to make helmets a must and review safety rules with their children before they ride. A few minutes today can help prevent a serious accident in the future.
