Attention, drivers in Henry County: A significant road closure is scheduled for U.S. 150 at the BNSF Railroad crossing, north of Ophiem Road. This closure, running from May 6 to May 11, is to facilitate the removal and replacement of the at-grade railroad crossing and to repave the approaches. Motorists are advised to follow a marked detour via Illinois 81, Interstate 74, and Illinois 17, and should expect delays. Drivers should consider alternate routes where possible and exercise caution, adhering to updated signs and speed limits through the work zones. Stay informed on this project and more by following @IDOTDistrict2 on Twitter or checking IDOT’s traveler map on GettingAroundIllinois.com.
