The department recently updated the project plans to include a second managed lane in each direction of I-55 between Interstate 294 (Tri-State Tollway) and Interstate 90/94 (Dan Ryan Expressway). The meeting will be in an open-house format at the following time and location: Wednesday, Dec. 6 4 – 7 p.m. Toyota Park Stadium Club 7000 Harlem Ave. Bridgeview, Ill. 60455 The state received federal approval in 2016 to build one managed lane in each direction of I-55 between Interstate 355 near Bolingbrook to I-90/94 in Chicago. The revised project proposes to add the second managed lane north of the Tri-State Tollway within the existing IDOT right of way. The additional capacity will make it easier to maintain consistent, reliable speeds and travel times for all I-55 users. No funding has been identified for construction, but IDOT continues to pursue the project as a public-private partnership. Exhibits will be on display and an audio-visual presentation will be shown continuously during the meeting. Project team members will be available to discuss the project and answer questions.
