The Geneva Public Works Department is scheduled to repair a water main in early February near Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital.
The City responded to a water leak this week at Keslinger Road and Delnor Drive on the south end of the hospital campus. Crews were able to isolate the water leak but need to finish the full water main repair when temperatures warm up.
Public Works is planning to complete the project on Tuesday, Feb. 3, weather permitting. When work resumes, the southbound lane of Delnor Drive (leaving the hospital campus) to Keslinger Road will be closed to traffic beginning at 8 a.m. People looking to leave the hospital campus will need to use Fisher Drive or Williamsburg Avenue.
The driveway from the parking lot at Tri-Cities Diaysis, 306 S. Randall Road, and Northwestern Medicine Ophthalmology Geneva, 308 S. Randall Road, to southbound Delnor Drive will be closed during the repair. The parking lot's north entrance/exit will remain open.
Hospital staff and visitors will be able to enter the hospital campus on northbound Delnor Drive from Keslinger Road.
The City has notified the hospital of the upcoming work. The water main repair is expected to be completed by the afternoon. If the weather is not ideal, the project will be pushed back to Wednesday, Feb. 4.
