From Interstate 74 to Illinois Route 6 — Tazewell, Woodford, and Peoria Counties
A Context Sensitive Solutions Project
Study Overview
The Eastern Bypass project is currently in the first of a twopart study process. This first part is a Corridor Study. The second is an Alignments Study.
The goal of the current Corridor Study is to find one path, or “corridor,” out of many possible corridors, that would be best general location for the Bypass. Corridors are wide enough to allow for many different specific highway locations within them.
Once the Corridor Study is complete, with one preferred corridor has been selected, the Alignments Study will begin. The goal of the Alignments Study will be to find one precise route location for the proposed project.
