CHICAGO (CBS) – Three days after Chicago's first-ever NASCAR Street Race, the roads around Grant Park are slowly returning to normal.

Crews started taking down a section of the track wall at Congress Circle on Wednesday. They'll be at work through much of the night.

Congress Circle is expected to fully reopen Thursday at 6 a.m.

All of the track sections and lanes closed for the NASCAR events should be back to normal late next week.
