Brimfield Road closures set July 29-30

BRIMFIELD – The Illinois Department of Transportation announced that temporary, intermittent full stops of traffic will occur on Brimfield Road under Interstate 74 on July 29 and 30.

The stops are necessary to place steel beams for the I-74 bridge over Brimfield Road.

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 should be considered. 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.
