Workers continue construction in preparation for the NASCAR Chicago Street Race at the corner of Columbus Drive and Ida B. Wells Drive on June 13, 2023. But Schwieterman said the effects of the road closures could linger. People might not be following the day-by-day closure updates, and instead might decide to simply avoid driving near downtown for an extended period of time.
The southbound lanes of the major lakefront thoroughfare will close from Randolph Street to the Museum Campus beginning June 28. Lane reductions will extend farther: Traffic will be reduced to two lanes at North Avenue, then to one lane at Chicago Avenue. Downtown traffic will be directed to exit at Michigan Avenue, and through traffic will be directed to exit at Grand Avenue. Between Grand and Randolph, only local traffic will be allowed.
