IDOT officials announced the closure of a section of I-57 and I-74 in Champaign County beginning this (Thursday) evening. it will be closed for two years. The ramp leading from westbound I-74 to northbound I-57 will be part of the overall reconstruction of the interchange. It's another part of the Rebuild Illinois Capital Plan. IDOT said in a news release the project is to replace the current ramps with new ones.
Officials said a detour will be posted to accommodate the ramp’s closure. Drivers intending to drive north will have to take southbound I-57 to Curtis Road in Savoy and then turn around at that exit. Drivers can expect delays when driving through the interchange.
