Downers Grove moving ahead with drainage improvement project
Updated 1/22/2021 4:30 PM
Downers Grove officials have revived a major infrastructure project that was canceled last year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The village has budgeted roughly $4 million for the Burlington Highlands drainage improvement project, which is slated to begin in March. The work will include the construction of a new and updated storm sewer system, regraded ditches and a detention basin.
The Burlington Highlands neighborhood is north of Ogden Avenue along portions of Downers Drive, Seeley Avenue, Belle Aire Lane and Venard Road.
Andrew Sikich, Downers Grove s director of public works, told village council members on Jan. 12 that the revamped project will include water main and resurfacing work on Venard Road between Ogden and Drove avenues.
