Improvements to U.S. 30 to Be Discussed
The Illinois Department of Transportation will host a public meeting on Tuesday, July 21st, for the proposed reconstruction and improvements to U.S. 30 from west of Illinois 78 north to Jackson Street in Morrison in Whiteside County. The event will be from 1 to 6 p.m. at the Odell Public Library, 307 S. Madison St., Morrison.
This meeting will be held in an open house format with no formal presentation. The public is invited to attend at any time during the hours listed to view exhibits and maps detailing existing conditions and potential improvement alternatives, speak with project representatives, ask questions and share feedback.
U.S. 30 is a principal arterial in the IDOT road network and an important east-west corridor through the city of Morrison. The pavement was originally constructed in the 1930s. IDOT initiated the project study to evaluate rehabilitation and reconstruction concepts because of the poor condition of the existing road.
Proposed corridor improvements include:
- Pavement reconstruction
- Drainage improvements
- Intersection improvements
- Multi-use path
