Good morning, It's my first flood season living is Des Plaines. Is there a website to go to that will tell us which roads are closed so we aren't driving around and find out that way?

Now we just need an app that provides directions around closed streets in DesPlaines.

I just got back from Glenview. River Road between Central and the Cannabis sign (Foundry/Kensington I believe) is a mess and will probably be shut soon. Very high water. Also going South on River right past Golf is a disaster.

@hogan I was planning on traveling East today from River Rd and Golf Rd. Planned on taking River up to Euclid (Lake) and turning eastbound as Central and Golf are closed. Will that work?

@endoergic4 yesterday it was closed. I didn't work today so not sure. I took Wolf to Euclid/Lake yesterday because I knew it was closed.

@hogan oh so River is close northbound. I see.

@endoergic4 yesterday it was yes. I believe you can make a left on Kensington and cut down a street to Euclid. I just took Wolf.
