2025 Construction Projects

Construction Updates 

If you have any project questions, contact Engineering at 630-823-5700 or visit www.hpil.org/1234/current-projects.

2025 Watermain Replacement Update: This week, the contractor completed the required testing and chlorination process on the final new main. A section of old main that will remain in place was lined. Next week, it will be pressure tested and chlorinated. The contractors have continued transferring water services from the old to the new main. Residents will receive a notification on their door prior to their service line being transferred.

Fiber Installation (AT&T): AT&T has a number of fiber installation projects throughout the Village. Any questions or concerns about these projects should be directed to AT&T’s Construction Hotline at 800-843-6581. If you leave your name, address, and phone number, they will follow up within 48 hours. 

Arlington Drive Bridge Replacement Update: This week, contractors framed the culvert walls and installed the reinforcing steel in the walls. Next week, they will finish the framing and pour concrete for the walls.

2025 Annual Hydrant Flushing 

Due to workload, the hydrant flushing scheduling has been updated. The Public Works Department will conduct the annual flushing of fire hydrants throughout the Village through Tuesday, September 16th between the hours of 6:00 AM and 2:00 PM. 

Hydrant flushing is vital to the routine maintenance of the Village’s water system. It improves water quality and flow, lubricates the hydrant's internal mechanisms, and helps identify any deficiencies to ensure that the hydrant performs when needed for an emergency.

Please do not wash laundry during the flushing hours as rust staining of clothing may occur. Residents with water softeners are encouraged to check the cycle time of their softeners, so that the unit does not generate during this period.  

The schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions or emergencies. If you have any questions, please contact the Public Works Department at (630) 823-5700.
