The Illinois State Toll Highway Authority is spending $562M (which actually means $562,000) to install quatermilemarkers and exit numbers along its tollways by next year.

About time they add exit numbers to their highways.

Hey Tim, you should start adding exit numbers to I-88 now. There are some pictures of the new exit numbers on BGS's already posted in the field.
http://www.highwayexplorer.com/il_EndsPage.php?id=3088&section=1

IL26 > 54
I-39 > 78
AnnGRd > 91
PeaRd > 94
IL47 > 109
OrchRd > 115

Those are the only ones shown on that site at this time. Maybe StreetView has a few more if they have been in that area again recently.

Thanks, so far I haven't found any great way to track the posting of the new exit numbers. I'll change a whole route file at once rather than pieces here and there once I see all the new numbers are up for a route.

Last week when I was working mostly along 294 south of I-55, Not only did i notice these new mileage signs going up but there are new distance signs. One after 95th St and and the 2nd after Cicero Ave that made me go "huh?". These 2 signs were giving the distance mileage to I-80 and I-94. Fine no problem. Problem was when it was placed next to one of the yardsticks, it was off by at least 2 miles. The I-94 junction is where I-294 officially ends yet I saw these different signs together. Unfortunately I did not have my camera with me to show this. Anyone have an explanation?
