A redevelopment plan Warrenville created has a list of recommendations for the Old Town area. One suggestion is a proposed realignment of the junction of Batavia, Warrenville and River roads into either a roundabout or four-way intersection.

About this Article

About six years ago, officials worked with residents to draft a plan to transform Warrenville into a city with riverfront paths, multistory condominium buildings and a roundabout intersection. Now the city council is looking to create a new tax increment financing district to help make that “vision of revitalization” become a reality.
