The Eisenhower Expressway in Schaumburg, IL is a major transportation project that is currently undergoing evaluation and planning for reconstruction. The project aims to address the transportation needs of the expressway and improve traffic flow. The Illinois Department of Transportation is considering various financial plans and methods to deliver this improvement, as the project competes for limited state and federal funding.
In June of 2017, the project received federal approval for the Final Environmental Impact Statement and Record of Decision. The approved plan includes the addition of tolled managed lanes with provisions for transit improvements as the selected alternative. This decision was made after careful consideration of social, economic, and environmental factors, as well as input from other agencies, organizations, and the public. The project will involve the addition of High Occupancy Toll lanes in each direction and the conversion of existing general-purpose lanes to improve traffic flow.
