| What Streets Are Closed For Nascar Chicago |
Which Streets Are Actually Closed?
Let's talk about the elephant in the room: road closures. It's like the city decided to play a giant game of Jenga and just started pulling out the streets. Don't worry, they'll put them back eventually (probably).
Tip: Reading on mobile? Zoom in for better comfort.
The big culprits:
Tip: Slow down at important lists or bullet points.
- DuSable Lake Shore Drive: This iconic stretch of road is basically a giant speed bump for NASCAR. So, if you were planning on a scenic drive, maybe rethink that.
- Michigan Avenue: The Magnificent Mile is more like the Magnificent Mile-long Traffic Jam during this event. So, forget about window shopping and focus on finding a parking spot (if you're lucky).
- Other random streets: Let's be honest, the whole downtown area is a bit of a no-go zone. It's like the city is trying to recreate the Berlin Wall, but with more rubber and less concrete.
How to Survive the NASCAR Chaos
- Public Transportation: Your best friend during this weekend. Trains, buses, even boats (if you're feeling fancy) are your lifesavers. Just be prepared for crowds.
- Walking: If you live close enough, consider walking. It's good exercise and you'll probably get there faster than trying to drive. Plus, you can people-watch!
- Remote Viewing: The ultimate pro move. Grab some snacks, your favorite beverage, and enjoy the race from the comfort of your couch. No traffic, no crowds, just pure racing bliss.
Remember: Don't be that person who ignores the road closures and tries to drive through. It's not worth it. You'll just end up stuck in traffic, honking your horn like a frustrated goose.
