Reminder: Sunday Street Closures During Marathon

The Bank of America Chicago Marathon may kick off downtown at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, but don’t think the street closures in Lake View won’t already be in effect.

Staring at 7 a.m. Sunday, six neighborhood streets will be closed until around 11 a.m., stretching from as far south in Lake View as Diversey Parkway all the way up to Addison Street. That means residents wanting to cross North Broadway, Sheridan or Inner Lake Shore will need to drive around Addison.

Please note the following specific streets and times so you can be prepared for Sunday’s commute:

• N. Sheridan Road – Diversey to Belmont from 7 to 10:45 a.m.
• Inner Lake Shore Dr. – Belmont to Addison from 7 to 10:45 a.m.
• W. Addison St. – Inner Lake Shore to Broadway from 7 to 10:45 a.m.
• N. Broadway – Diversey to Addison from 7 to 10:45 a.m.
• N. Clark St. – Diversey to Webster from 7 to 11 a.m.
