DOWNERS GROVE, IL – The Illinois Tollway joined local and state leaders from the city of Belvidere and Boone County to break ground on the construction of the final ramps needed to complete the Irene Road Interchange on the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (I-90). The new, full-access Irene Road Interchange is scheduled to be complete by the end of 2015 as part of the Illinois Tollway’s 15-year, $12 billion Move Illinois Program.

“The Illinois Tollway is the driving force for economic development throughout Northern Illinois,” said Tollway Board Chairman Bob Schillerstrom. “And, this investment in building a full-access interchange at Irene Road will accelerate economic development and job creation by opening access and providing greater opportunities for local businesses to grow.”  Full press release.
