GLEN CARBON– The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) announced that I-270, from Illinois Route 3 to just east of the I-55/70/270 interchange, will be intermittently restricted to one lane in each direction beginning on Wednesday, June 3, 2020, weather permitting. These lane closures will happen on Wednesday and Thursday evening from 6:00 P.M. to 6:00 A.M. and will continue throughout the weekend starting at 7 P.M. Friday evening and ending at 6:00 A.M.

These closures are part of a larger resurfacing project which will include additional intermittent lane closures that will start after the Fourth of July weekend. Future press releases will detail these closures.
