Legislation aims to change how Illinois plans road construction projects – Center Square

State Sen. Chapin Rose has joined state Rep. Adam Niemerg to introduce legislation that prevents adjoining construction projects at the same time. “[The legislation] directs IDOT to never place a primary route, an interstate system, under construction at the same time they place the parallel secondary route, Route 40,” Rose said. “That decision that was made a year ago led to what the folks who live here know was complete chaos.”
