Army Trail Road - Route Description

Route Description

Army Trail Road begins at a junction with Illinois 25 in Wayne. From here, the road heads east through a residential forested area to County Highway 19 (Dunham Road). Past Dunham Road, the road briefly becomes County Highway 20 before entering DuPage County. The road continues east through Wayne to Munger Road, where it becomes County Highway 11. Army Trail Road then passes Illinois Route 59 and heads east along the border of Bartlett and Carol Stream. The route passes to the north of two small lakes before entering a developed residential area. It continues east through Bloomingdale and Glendale Heights, intersecting County Highway 4 (Bloomingdale Road) near Black Hawk Elementary School. After passing County Highways 5 (Glen Ellyn Road) and 24 (Walter Road), the road runs through a county forest preserve before intersecting Interstate 355 in Addison. Past the interstate, the road meets Illinois Route 53, the eastern terminus of County Highway 11. Army Trail Road continues through residential Addison, passing to the south of Addison Trail High School. The road ends at a cul-de-sac near Addison Village Hall; its terminus almost intersects U.S. Route 20, which connects to Army Trail Road via John F. Kennedy Drive.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:

    By a route obscure and lonely,
    Haunted by ill angels only,
    Where an eidolon, named Night,
    On a black throne reigns upright,
    I have reached these lands but newly
    From an ultimate dim Thule—
    From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
    Out of space—out of time.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    It [Egypt] has more wonders in it than any other country in the world and provides more works that defy description than any other place.
    Herodotus (c. 484–424 B.C.)
