Motorists traveling westbound along Interstate 74 between Danville and Champaign-Urbana will find more construction work getting underway today (Monday, June 25, 2018). The Illinois Department of Transportation says there will only be one west-bound lane open the entire stretch from East of the Saint Joseph exit to the High Cross Road overpass – just east of University Avenue in Urbana.
This could cause additional backup issues along the interstate, according to Illinois State Police…especially for commuters using the St. Joseph entrance and exit ramps.
State Police are strongly recommending that commuters allow plenty of travel time this morning as this may affect your arrival time at work.
Construction work is expected to continue in that area until November.
