Bureau County: Interstate 80 closures begin June 7
The Illinois Department of Transportation announced today that Interstate 80 in Bureau County will be closed for three consecutive nights from Wednesday, June 7, through Friday, June 9, to accommodate construction of the 645 E Road bridge near Sheffield. I-80 will be closed between the Illinois 78 interchange (exit 33) and the Illinois 40 interchange (exit 45).  
 
Work will set beams on the new bridge. I-80 will close each night at 8 p.m. and will reopen by 6 a.m. the following morning. A posted detour for I-80 will direct motorists to use Illinois 78, U.S. 6 and Illinois 40. The project is expected to be completed by early fall.

Inbound Kennedy stage change begins May 15 - reminder
Major travel delays are anticipated, alternative routes are strongly encouraged. 

CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Transportation announced today that as part of the ongoing rehabilitation of the Kennedy Expressway (Interstate 90/94), from the Edens Expressway (Interstate 94) junction to Ohio Street, a stage change is scheduled to take place beginning, weather permitting, Monday, May 15. 

To accommodate bridge work at Diversey Avenue, the reversible express lanes exit at Diversey Avenue will be closed for approximately eight weeks. During that time, the express lanes will remain open in the inbound direction and motorists will not be able to exit them until Ohio Street. Drivers should continue to expect lane shifts and overnight lane closure, along with various ramp closures. Later this summer, painting and the installation of new LED lighting will begin on inbound Hubbard’s Cave, between Ohio and Lake streets. 

The inbound Kennedy work is anticipated to be completed later this fall, with all lanes and ramps reopening and the express lanes resuming normal operations.

The Houbolt Road Extension Opening to Traffic April 27
Joliet, Ill., April 25, 2023 – Houbolt Road Extension JV, LLC (HRE-JV), a joint venture between United Bridge Partners (UBP) and CenterPoint Properties, proudly announces that the new Houbolt Road Extension will open to traffic on Thursday, April 27 at 10:00 a.m. CDT.

The Houbolt Road Extension creates a direct route between I-80 and the CenterPoint Intermodal Center (CIC), which officials say will significantly reduce congestion on local roads and shorten long routes to the highway, saving drivers time, miles, and money. The CIC is the nation’s largest inland port, with as many as 20,000 trucks passing through it daily. This new bridge will help truckers maximize driver hours while creating a new avenue for companies to optimize their resources.

Project leaders also say this shorter route into the CIC will have positive environmental impacts by reducing vehicle miles traveled and idling. Leaders say the Houbolt Road Extension will reduce the CIC’s carbon footprint annually. Employees within the CIC will enjoy shorter commutes, while those traveling local roads will experience substantially less truck traffic.

The privately financed project involved designing and building a 1.5-mile-long highway extension, including a 0.4-mile-long bridge over the Des Plaines River. HRE-JV financed and constructed the project and will operate and maintain the bridge while collecting tolls under a 99-year lease agreement with the City of Joliet. Construction commenced on March 8, 2021, and was completed in just over two years.

“United Bridge Partners is honored to serve the Joliet community by funding, building, and operating the Houbolt Road Extension,” shared UBP president and CEO Doug Witt. “Teamed with CenterPoint Properties, together we were able to rebuild and enhance the road and bridge infrastructure in Illinois. We are proud to open a new road to economic growth and prosperity that will advance the entire region for years to come.”

“Over the past 20 years, the CIC has grown into an invaluable part of the supply chains of many of the world’s leading companies. A new, third access point to the Park is critical, and we’re excited to open the extension to manage traffic within CIC productively,” said Michael Murphy, CenterPoint’s chief development officer. “The HRE is a shining example of what can be accomplished when local, state, and federal entities partner with private companies to impact communities positively. We look forward to continuing to strengthen our relationships with community groups and leaders in the cities surrounding the CIC,” Murphy finished.

The Houbolt Road Extension uses an all-electronic system that accepts toll payments through I-PASS, E-ZPass, and Pay by Plate to keep traffic flowing smoothly. The tolling gantry is located between the bridge and US Route 6; toll rates are tiered based on vehicle class, which is determined by vehicle height, width, and length. For drivers paying with a transponder, the rate for Class 1/passenger/light vehicles is $2.00, Class 2/medium vehicles are $4.00, and Class 3/large vehicles are $8.00. Pay-by-Plate rates include an additional $3.50 administrative fee for each crossing.

HRE-JV partnered with Granite/Kraemer – a Joint Venture for engineering, procurement, and construction; Burns and McDonnell for engineering services; TranSystems as owner representative; and A-to-Be USA for the tolling collection system.
