North Ave.... ughhh

Title says it all. West of 355 is 1 lane each direction. Not enjoyable. I fortunately have a bypass but still, it's going to be hell for anyone driving on it who has to take it.

Butterfield Road.....ughhh

One lane from Naperville Rd to Rt 59, 35 mph, $375 minimum fine and you have to go court where the judge will be none too happy. If the judge doesn't like your looks its $500, say something smart-alecky and its $1000 and a few days in the pokey. Hit a worker and you'll be serving time in Joliet. I've seen two cars stopped by police in covered wrappers.

Butterfield was already only one lane in each direction there. Now there's just a bunch of cones up to confuse people and slow them down.

The one-laning of Route 59 and Naperville Road at the Butterfield construction (albeit temporary) is far more severe. The delays are awful.

If everything seems to be going well, you've obviously overlooked something.

Learned that one the other day too. I've been making daily treks between Wheaton and Joliet and have had difficulty in finding a suitable route. 355->88->59 is fine, its just how to connect from house to highway.

Roosevelt is also under some single lane operations, although not quite as severe.

What about Winfield Rd or all the way out to Kirk Rd and down?

I was going to try Winfield next actually and see how that goes. As long as I do not travel between 4 and 6 pm, as long as I can make it on 355/88 its pretty easy drive, usually 30 minutes. If I take the wrong way or go at 5pm (or both...) it can take an hour and a half.
