Libertyville to Benefit from $6.1 Million Road and Bridge Improvement Projects

LIBERTYVILLE – The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has announced a $6.1 million investment in road and bridge improvement projects for Libertyville, thanks to smart infrastructure investments supported by state Sen. Mary Edly-Allen.

“Improving our state’s aging infrastructure by making these necessary investments will create good-paying jobs and make our roads safer and more reliable,” said Edly-Allen, D-Libertyville.

Part of IDOT’s latest Multi-Year Plan under Rebuild Illinois, the district Edly-Allen represents will see nine infrastructure projects next year.

These projects are part of IDOT’s $40 billion investment in construction spanning six fiscal years, covering all modes of transportation: roads and bridges, aviation, transit, freight and passenger rail, waterways, as well as bicycle and pedestrian accommodations.
