The left lane and the NB entrance ramp from Illinois 157 will be closed to allow IDOT District 8 Operations forces to perform emergency bridge deck patching on the bridge over Illinois 157. A detour will be marked to assist travelers to access northbound I-55/70 from Illinois 157. The NB I-55/70 Exit Ramp to Illinois 157 will remain open during construction.

All lanes are expected to re-open by 3:30 p.m. on Friday, October 4, 2024.

Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. To avoid the work area, when feasible, use of alternate routes should be considered. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to changed conditions and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits, refrain from using mobile devices and be alert for workers and equipment.
