Tree triming and paving scheduled at various forest preserves

The Forest Preserve District of Kane County asks users of the Great Western Trail and LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve in St. Charles to be aware of a tree-trimming project, along with a paving project at Fabyan Forest Preserve in Batavia.

ComEd contractor Lewis Tree Service will be trimming trees along the Great Western Trail and at LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve beginning April 16 through April 30.

There are no closures associated with this project; however, trail users should be aware of the equipment that might be on the trail.

A paving project at the Fabyan Forest Preserve parking lot, east side of Route 25, will begin April 17 through May 25. Users should be aware that the paving will include the entrance to the preserve and daily closures to the far east side are possible.

Preserve and trail users are asked to be mindful of the tree-trimming and paving projects, as well as the possibility of construction equipment in the vicinity.
