Construction has started on a new interchange on I-88 at Eola Rd in Aurora, IL This is going to be 1 1/2 miles west of IL 59. The completion date is scheduled for November.

Also, IL 53 has a major section of freeway in suburban Chicago. The folling is a list of the exits:
IL 53 South/Beisterfield Rd (I-290 exit 4)
IL 58 Golf Rd/Woodfield Rd/IL 72 Higgins Rd (I-290 exit 1a-b)
I-90 Jane Addams Northwest Tollway (I-290 ends)
IL 62 Algonquin Rd
Kirchoff Rd (NB exit/SB entrance only)
Euclid Ave
US 14 Northwest Hwy
Palatine Rd
US 12 Rand Rd (NB exit/SB entrance only)
IL 68 Dundee Rd/IL 53 North
Lake Cook Rd


Between 68 and Lake Cook, it is unsigned however the radio traffic reports do call it 53 expressway.

As far as the Elgin-O'Hare Expy goes, it was planned to be an extension of I-190 (eventually) going to Randall Rd and US 20. It was to be in 4 phases. Currently the Elgin Bypass (signed as US 20) and the segment from IL 53 to US 20 in Hanover Park are built. There are still plans to finish the entire route but not until the O'Hare expansion is done (2012?)
Anyway, here is a list of the exits for the completed parts of the Elgin-O'Hare:

Eastern part:
IL 53 Rohlwing Rd
Medinah Rd/Meachum Rd
Roselle Rd
Wright Blvd/Rodenburg Rd
Springinsguth Rd/IL 19 Irving Park Rd
Gary Ave (WB off/EB on)
US 20 Lake St


Western part (Elgin Bypass):
US 20 East & Old Bus US 20 Villa St (WB off/EB on)
to IL 25 Liberty St
IL 31 State St
McLean Blvd
Old Bus US 20 Larkin Ave (EB off/WB on)
Randall Rd & US 20 West

Welcome to our project forum.

I'll add the IL 53 freeway to the project. The other expressway doesn't make our cut right now, but maybe it will when it is completed. Thanks for the info.

I'll move the thread to our 6-month Outlook so I remember to add the new I-88 interchange later this year when it opens.
