North Aurora Road Improvements
On Thursday afternoon, the City of Naperville and the City of Aurora hosted an informational meeting at the Naperville Public Works Service Center to discuss the second phase of improvements to North Aurora Road. The project will widen North Aurora Road from Frontenac Road to Pennsbury Lane, and improve the existing bridge and underpass. During the meeting, project representatives provided drawings and maps of the area with engineering analysis. The goal of the construction is to reduce motor congestion on North Aurora and to provide a safe and efficient path for pedestrians. Work on the second phase is set to begin in summer of 2023

Springbrook Golf Course Closing For Renovations
Springbrook Golf Course will be closing for renovations beginning August 1. The nearly 50-year-old golf course will be getting new tees, bunkers, bridges, and cart paths, along with updates to green surrounds and drainage improvements. The work should be completed by late fall to allow reopening of the course in late spring/early summer of 2023. In the meantime, the clubhouse, practice areas and driving ranges will remain open. The Naperville Park District reminds the public that Naperbrook will be open for daily play as an option, though increased demand will make tee time availability more limited. Advance reservations can be made online or through the golf shop.
