  • 11Chap 5 Transportation 3 20 06.Pdf
    CHAPTER FIVE TRANSPORTATION INTRODUCTION Transportation planning is commonly equated with the construction of new roadways, the expansion of existing roadways, or other projects which are designed to reduce traffic congestion and to accommodate future increases in automobile demand. Such transportation needs are directly related to the type and intensity of the land uses that develop along roadways, and other developments that are served by the road network. Those roadways located within the Study Area for the Corridor Plan were further examined in terms of access to adjoining properties, future road extensions, future frontage and backage roads, and bicycle and pedestrian facilities. The conclusions presented at the end of this Chapter provide the basis for recommended conditions for development approval and continuing implementation strategies that are contained within Chapter Two – the Recommended Plan. PROJECT DESCRIPTION, LOCATION AND PURPOSE The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is constructing a four-lane, divided highway from a point south of the City of Carthage in Hancock County, Illinois, to the west side of the City of Macomb in McDonough County, Illinois (See Figure 5A). The proposed highway will be designated as Federal Aid Primary Route 315 (FAP 315) and marked as Illinois Route 336 (IL 336). It will generally parallel and replace the existing two-lane U.S. Route 136 (U.S. 136). Having a functional classification of principal arterial highway with partial access control, the proposed highway will be constructed with interchanges at Illinois Route 94 (IL 94) east of Carthage, Illinois Route 61 (IL 61) west of Tennessee, and at U.S. Route 136 west of Macomb.
