“Darien Never Forgets – 9/11”

This September marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001; a day that forever changed our nation and in many ways, changed each of us.

For those of us who remember that morning, we can recall where we were, what we were doing, and the sense of disbelief and fear that followed. We watched as our sense of security was shaken and as an attack on our nation reminded us of something we too often take for granted; our safety and our way of life are not guaranteed.

September 11 made us more aware of our vulnerability. It changed the way many of us traveled, went to work, entered public buildings, and thought about the world around us. But perhaps, and most importantly, it reminded us how much we depend on one another, and on the men and women who stand ready to protect us when we need them most.

Road Work on Lemont Rd

The DuPage County Division of Transportation’s 2026 Roadway Resurfacing Program is currently working on Lemont Road from Bluff Road to 87th Street. Their contractor has requested to be allowed to pave the final surface course at night.

The County intends to allow the contractor to perform this work during the nighttime hours, due to the overall high volume of traffic, the large proportion of truck traffic, and the challenges with maintaining efficient traffic flow through the project site during while construction activities are underway. Allowing the nighttime work will help ensure the highest quality pavement possible as well as minimize delays to the public and industry that commute via Lemont Road, especially through the I-55 interchange. The contractor is proposing to perform the night work between September 14 and 26. The County will provide advanced notification to the public via changeable message signs along Lemont Road beginning early next week.

If you have any questions, please contact DuPage County Division of Transportation at 630-407-6900.
