Road closures caused by Homecoming parade route

By Northern Star Staff

The Homecoming Parade is going to cause road closures tonight.

The parade will run from 5:30 to 7 p.m., and start on Stadium Drive behind Huskie Stadium. The parade will then travel north past the Rec Center, east on Lucinda Avenue and head north around the Greek Row area. The parade will conclude with a bonfire held in the gravel parking lot off of Kishwaukee Drive, behind Anderson Hall.

The route will use portions or entire lengths of Stadium Drive, Lucinda Avenue, Russell Road, Hillcrest Drive, Greenbrier Road, Blackhawk Road, Ridge Drive, Normal Road, and Kishwaukee Drive. The parade is organized by the Student Involvement and Leadership Development office.

Russell Road, Normal Road, and Lucinda Avenue will be shut down for the majority of the parade.
