Trail Closure and Maintenance Information

ILLINOIS PRAIRIE PATH – AURORA BRANCH – MOLITOR TO INDIAN TRAIL

Updated:  09MAY2022

Two IPP users have advised that the Aurora Branch is closed between Molitor and Indian Trail. Apparently no detour is currently posted. We have requested details/guidance from the Kane County Department of Transportation & the Fox Valley Park District.

This closure will likely be in effect at least through the end of June.

Google Maps suggests that Diehl/Molitor, Church, and Indian Trail are bike friendly roads that could be used as alternate route. To avoid riding alongside Indian Trail, you might also consider taking Church road south across Indian Trail to Alyce Lane west which will take you back to the path.

Please plan your route in advance; make your own assessment whether these roads are safe. Additional guidance will be posted when available. Thank you.
