Insider Tips: Best Times to Move in South Loop
- ⚠ Soldier Field Events: Avoid Bears home games and major concerts. Traffic on LSD and Roosevelt is gridlock.
- ⚠ Chicago Marathon: Early October. The route cuts off access to much of the South Loop.
- ⚠ Grant Park Festivals: Lollapalooza and Taste of Chicago affect Michigan Ave and Columbus Dr traffic.
- ⚠ Rush Hour: Roosevelt Road is heavy 7-9 AM and 4-6 PM. Mid-day moves are often smoother.
