Workers to Break Ground on Kenmore Water Main Project

City officials say construction on a section of Kenmore Avenue is about to begin. Get all the details about where parking and driving may be limited.


Parking may be limited on parts of Kenmore Avenue in the coming days.

The Chicago Department of Water Management will be installing 702 feet of 8-inch and 1,138 of 16-inch water main along North Kenmore Avenue from Fullerton to Belden avenues; and along Belden Avenue, from Kenmore Avenue Fremont Street, according to a newsletter from 32nd Ward Ald. Scott Waguespack

The old main consists of a 6-inch and 12-inch pipe and the City need to expand capacity. The old pipes date back to 1888, Waguespack said.

"No parking" signs will be posted as needed during work hours.
