Starting Monday, December 2nd, the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) will begin replacing the structure that carries Illinois Route 14 over Bear Creek in Hamilton County, weather permitting.
The project will replace the existing structure with a cast-in-place triple-barrel box culvert. During the construction, Fairground Road will be closed at its intersection with Illinois Route 14. The closure will remain in effect for the duration of the project, which is expected to be completed by next September.
Traffic flow will be managed using staged construction and temporary traffic signals.
Motorists are encouraged to stay alert for changing conditions, follow all detour signs, adhere to posted speed limits, avoid using mobile devices, and remain vigilant for workers and construction equipment in the area.
