Black Road Goes Down to One Lane May 1
The City of Joliet Public Utilities Department will begin construction of a water main on Black Road as part of the Glenwood Manor Water Main Replacement Project on Thursday, May 1, 2025.
The project includes work to replace the watermain on Black Road from Apollo Drive to Springfield Avenue. Traffic on Black Road will be reduced to one lane in each direction from 129th Infantry Drive to Springfield Avenue.
All work, including final pavement restoration, is anticipated to be complete by July 1, 2025. 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.
