The Route: I-294 to I-88
O'Hare to Oak Brook avoids the Kennedy Expressway entirely — a significant advantage. The standard routing takes I-294 South from O'Hare to the I-88 East interchange, then a short run east to the Oak Brook exits (Route 83 or York Road). It's a cleaner drive with less traffic variance than the inbound Kennedy during business hours.
During the afternoon reverse commute, westbound I-88 between Route 83 and I-355 can slow down, particularly between 4:30 and 6:30 PM. When that happens, the alternate approach on Butterfield Road or 22nd Street adds time but avoids standing on the expressway. Our drivers know both approaches and use whichever is moving.
The final approach matters too — Oak Brook's corporate park is spread across Jorie Boulevard, 22nd Street, and the area between Route 83 and York Road. Corporate campus addresses in this grid are familiar to our drivers so there's no GPS fumbling at the entrance gate.
