Reconstruction, Bridge Replacement, Interchange Reconstruction, at the IL 5/I-74 Interchange

The work consists of the reconstruction of I-74 and IL 5 using PCC Pavement. The existing cloverleaf interchange will be reconstructed as a diverging diamond interchange. The work also includes reconstruction of the IL 5 over 27th Street Bridge (EX SN 081-0095 and EX SN 081-0096, PR SN 081-0174), the IL 5 over I-74 (EX SN 081-0097 and EX SN 081-0098, PR SN 081-0205 and 081-0206) and the I-74 over 38th Avenue Bridge (EX SN 081-0109 and EX SN 081-0110, PR SN 081-0202). The work includes culvert replacements throughout the entire project limits including major culverts under I-74 (SN 081-2024) and under 30th Street. The work also includes traffic control, drainage removal, proposed drainage, subsurface drainage, landscaping, pavement marking and signing, proposed overhead sign trusses, erosion and sediment control, roadside ditch improvements, multi-use path construction, ADA accessible ramp improvements, traffic signal improvements, lighting improvements, and all necessary restoration, as shown in the Contract Plans and described herein. Location: The project is located at the interchange of IL 5 (John Deere Road) over I-74. The reconstruction of I-74 begins approximately 0.9 miles north of IL 5 and ends approximately 0.4 miles south of IL 5. The reconstruction of IL 5 begins at 16th Street and ends approximately 0.3 miles east of I-74 with pavement widening and multi-use path construction extending to 38th Street. The gross and net length of the project is 14,084 feet (2.7 miles).
