It’s that time of year where we see multiple street closures throughout the city of Chicago for the annual marathon, which takes place on Sunday October 13. Plan ahead so you do not get caught in traffic.

The main downtown closures include Jackson Drive, between Columbus and DuSable Lake Shore drives, starting 10 a.m. Wednesday. Jackson is expected to reopen Monday morning.

Sections of Columbus Drive will close beginning Thursday at Roosevelt Road, north to Ida B. Wells Drive. The closure will extend to Monroe Street on Friday morning and to Randolph Street on Saturday morning.

There are several dozen more street closures throught the north, west and south sides. You can see all of the closures by clicking here and so you can plan ahead if you live or plan on being in Chicago this weekend.

Good luck to all the runners this week and plan ahead if you need to navigate the city starting today through sunday.
