DuPage River Trail
This week, the Forest Preserve District of Will County took the first steps toward implementing a new segment of the DuPage River Trail by closing Book Road between 127th Street and 119th Street. The road will be converted to a trail this summer as the initial phase of a broader, multi-year, $5.6-million effort to provide an additional loop trail, parking access, and habitat restoration on the 300 acres of land owned by the Forest Preserve District, along the west bank of the DuPage River, adjacent to Book Road. More information.
