Overview and Scope
This project involves a study to reconstruct Illinois 84 through Colona. The existing pavement is approaching the end of its service life and no longer meets the transportation needs of the local community and the region. This project proposed to address these deficiencies by reconstructing Illinois 84 with a bi-direction left turn lane from Fifth Avenue to Seventh Street, constructing a sidewalk and a multi-use path for bicyclists and pedestrians, and improving drainage with a storm sewer system. To address traffic backups at Cleveland Road, this intersection will be signalized and the left turn lane will be lengthened.
