The IL-7 (9th Street) and IL-171 (State Street) Intersection Improvement project is a State project with local participation. The project will include:
- Traffic signal replacement
- Adding left turn lanes on IL 171
- Reconstructing on-street parking
- Providing new ADA compliant sidewalks and crossings within the project area
- Utility relocations and watermain replacement (watermain replacement is 100% City cost)
- Filling the old coal vaults that currently reside under the sidewalks as a safety measure for both
pedestrians and building owners.
There was a public meeting held on August 26, 2015. Below is the Brochure and exhibits as provided at the meeting.
