View the Water Main Replacement Program for projects outlined from 2023 to 2029.

Project Overview
The Village of Montgomery performs annual infrastructure maintenance on the water main in various areas throughout the Village and its water service areas. As part of the future water source transition project, the Village will focus efforts over several years on replacing aging infrastructure through a phased approach (see Water Main Replacement Program). To complete this work, they will need access to homes or businesses to install a temporary, above-ground water service bypass, ensuring a continuous water supply during the construction period. 

Project Goal
The goal of this project is to replace and line water mains to ensure a sustainable, safe drinking water infrastructure.

Water Main Replacement Planned for 2025
Construction has begun for the 2025 Water Main Improvement project. This year's projects are broken into four contracts centered around the following areas:

Contract A – Montgomery Road/Sherman Road/Broadway Avenue/Mill Street
Contract B – Boulder Hill Pass/Codorus Road
Contract C – Saugatuck Road/Pueblo Road/Long Beach Road/Amesbury Road
Contract D – Marnel Road/Spring Garden Drive/Circle Drive East/Wyndham Drive

2025 Project Funding
Thillinois_logo-1ese projects were financed by the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund (SRF). The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency administers the SRF program and receives a portion of its funding for these types of projects from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. These projects include the installation of 8-inch and 12-inch ductile iron water mains, water services, valve vaults, hydrants, and all related appurtenances. Once complete, these projects will enhance water quality, improve energy efficiency, and increase system resiliency for area residents and businesses in the Village of Montgomery. SRF programs operate in each state to provide communities with the resources necessary to build, maintain, and improve the infrastructure that protects one of our most valuable resources: water.

RT. 30 PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE PROJECT

Site Plan for Pedestrian Bridge Rt. 30

PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE PROJECT
The Village of Montgomery, in partnership with the Fox Valley Park District, is planning for the construction of a 225 pedestrian bridge over US ROUTE 30 and installing 1,700 feet of 10-foot-wide shared-use path. South of RT. 30, the proposed path will connect to an existing shared-use path that runs between the Lakewood Creek and Lakewood Creek West Subdivisions. North of RT.30, the proposed path will connect to an existing shared-use path that runs between Simpson Parkway and the Stuart Sports Complex. 

The purpose of this project is to provide a safe method for pedestrians and bicyclists to cross Route 30 from residential areas south of Route 30 to the Stuart Sports Complex. 

The public was invited to an informational open house at the Montgomery Police Department on May 15, 2025. Although there was no formal presentation, residents were able to view renderings and ask questions about the project. 

The Village is now seeking Requests for Qualifications for the Phase II Engineering for this project through June 20, 2025.

ROAD PROGRAM UPDATES

2025 INFRASTRUCTURE & ROAD PROGRAM PROJECT DETAILS
In early 2025, Engineering Enterprises presented a five-year plan for road repairs to the Village Board. This document includes information on costs, funding, maps of the areas for repair, and a street-by-street listing. The plan provides a blueprint allowing the Village to resurface many miles of roadway over the next five years.

PROJECT MAP | CANNONBALL TRAIL AND DICKSON ROAD REALIGNMENT

Cannonball and Dickson Realignment Project Map

Completion of the Cannonball Trl. and Dickson Rd. Realignment Project | Phase One Complete  
The Cannonball Trail and Dickson Road Realignment Project is a significant infrastructure development aimed at enhancing traffic flow, improving roadway safety, and preparing for future connectivity improvements. The project is a collaborative effort between the Village of Montgomery and the Kendall County Highway Department, spanning several construction phases. The project extends Gordon Road, connecting it to a newly aligned portion of Cannonball Trail to form a four-way stop. It will vacate the intersection of Dickson and Galena Roads. The new configuration will increase traffic safety and support anticipated development and growth in the community. 

This realignment will involve an extended section of Gordon Road, allowing it to merge with Cannonball Trail and redirect existing traffic through a newly structured four-way stop, which will eventually become a traffic signal in the summer of 2025.

Montgomery Park Construction

Montgomery Park Improvement Project | Mill District
Through an IGA with the Fox Valley Park District, the Village of Montgomery invests in Montgomery Park (301 N. River St.). Renovations include shoreline restoration, compensatory storage, installation of a gathering area with shade sails, and construction of a Veterans, First Responders, and Essential Workers Monument.

Montgomery Breaks Ground on a New Public Works Facility | May 2022

The Village Board, staff, representatives, local government leaders, architects, and construction management firm gathered Monday evening, May 9, at the future site of the new Village of Montgomery Public Works Building. The gathering commemorated the official groundbreaking of the new 75,304 square-foot facility, a long-awaited and necessary upgrade for the community.

The new building is directly adjacent to the current Public Works Building, built in 1974 and expanded in 1990 to accommodate the onsite Water Treatment Facility and additional storage. The aging facility will continue to house the water treatment operation and storage. Still, the new building will allow for enhanced fleet maintenance, equipment storage, staff facilities and offices, parking, access, and essential operational improvements.

Since 2000, the Village has more than doubled in size. The Department, responsible for the core and essential public services such as infrastructure and facility maintenance, roadway and signal repair, stormwater mitigation, water service, treatment, and waste, fleet maintenance, and emergency management, has continued to operate out of the 48-year-old building located at 891 Knell Road. The project has been in the works for several years now, and while COVID delayed and changed the original project timeline and scope, the Board and Staff are working hard to keep the project moving forward.

The Construction Management Firm for the project, Camosy Construction (Zion, IL), and the Project Architect, Williams Architects (Itasca, IL), were present Monday evening to meet with the Village elected officials and join the groundbreaking ceremony. The project will take approximately one year, with completion in March 2023. Despite a wet spring, the Village is championing the urgency of this project as the building will provide efficiencies to the essential municipal service provided by Public Works.

Once the project is complete, a formal ribbon-cutting for the public and stakeholders will occur for those interested in viewing and touring the facility and learning more about the Montgomery Public Works operations.

MAYFIELD DRIVE TRAFFIC CALMING

After reviewing a recent community survey of the residential homes along and adjacent to Mayfield Drive combined with multi-year traffic assessment data, the Village of Montgomery Village President and Board of Trustees decided to close the road to reduce traffic volume and increase safety to the Montgomery Crossings Townhomes and Saratoga Springs residential subdivisions. This decision was reviewed and voted on on May 24, 2021, Village Board Meeting (Meeting Minutes 05/24/21). Survey results overwhelmingly indicated that residents from both the Montgomery Crossings Townhomes and Saratoga Springs subdivisions favored closing the street to mitigate existing and future problems. If you were involved in this process, we thank you for your continued support and advocacy for safety in your subdivision. 

The Village will place barriers north of the Mayfield Drive and Roxbury Lane intersection in July 2021. At this time, the road is now closed to local and through traffic. The Village of Montgomery Police Department will ticket those who do not comply. 

The Village Board and staff will be closely monitoring and reviewing the success of the closure implementation. They will make a long-term decision on the closure of Mayfield Drive within the next calendar year, but this closure should be considered permanent moving forward.
