The Village of Pingree Grove announced on Apr. 17 that Reinking Road is now closed between Public Street and US Route 20 due to the Elgin/Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) roundabout construction project, which is expected to continue through September 2026.
The closure will affect local traffic and commuters who use this section of Reinking Road, as the construction aims to improve roadway safety and traffic flow at the intersection with US Route 20.
Detour maps have been made available for residents and drivers seeking alternative routes during the closure. The maps can be accessed on the Village of Pingree Grove website at this link.
The ongoing work is part of a broader effort by Elgin and IDOT to enhance transportation infrastructure in the area. Local officials encourage drivers to follow posted detours and allow extra travel time while construction continues.
Further updates about road closures or changes in traffic patterns are expected as the project progresses toward its projected completion date in September 2026.
