Bridge repairs on Illinois 336/110 in Adams County underway

QUINCY – The Illinois Department of Transportation announced that bridge deck repairs on Illinois 336/110 over Rock Creek about 2 miles south of the Adams County Fairgrounds is underway. Work is scheduled to conclude in the middle of November.

One lane of traffic in both directions will be open at all times. Signs and temporary barriers will be used to help guide motorists through the construction zone. Benefits from this project includes extending the life of the bridge and a smoother driving surface.

Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. To avoid the work area, when feasible, use of alternate routes may be necessary. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to changed conditions and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits, refrain from using mobile devices and be alert for workers and equipment.

Over the next six years, IDOT is planning to improve more than 3,200 miles of highway and nearly 9 million square feet of bridge deck as part of Rebuild Illinois, which is investing $33.2 billion into all modes of transportation. Accomplishments through Year Six of Rebuild Illinois include almost $20.8 billion of improvements statewide on 7,897 miles of highway, 815 bridges and 1,181 additional safety improvements.
