ComEd crews will be performing tree removal work later this afternoon near Republic Road as part of ongoing efforts to address damage to utility poles and power lines.

A large crane will be brought into the area and staged within Memorial Park to remove trees impacting the lines. Residents and park visitors should expect increased activity, equipment, and work crews in and around the park during this operation.

For your safety, please avoid work areas, obey all posted signs and barricades, and give crews plenty of space to complete their work safely and efficiently.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
