Local community leaders helped State Senator Patrick Joyce’s effort to pass a law that will expedite safety and infrastructure decisions at dangerous intersections on local state roads.
Senate Bill 3275 will require the Illinois Department of Transportation, in consultation with local agencies, to identify and conduct a road safety assessment of the 10 most hazardous state-controlled intersections in Will County. The law will address delays faced by municipalities and counties in the 40th District when seeking IDOT review.
Residents and local leaders in the 40th District have called for solutions to getting the infrastructure changes needed to keep drivers safe in a timely manner.
Senate Bill 3275 was signed into law requiring an assessment be submitted to the General Assembly by Jan. 1, 2028.
