A contractor for the Illinois Department of Transportation has removed the 10 ft. 11 inch load width restriction from the Interstate 24 Ohio River Bridge work zone between Paducah, KY and Metropolis, IL.
According to IDOT Spokesman Keith Roberts, a work zone lane restriction remains in place for both eastbound and westbound traffic. Trucks hauling oversized loads should check with the Illinois Department of Transportation before scheduling trips through his work zone.
This lane restriction for both eastbound and westbound traffic on I-24 is expected to remain in place until around June 15.
Motorists should be alert for slowing and merging traffic as they approach this work zone at the Illinois-Kentucky State Line. There is a strictly enforced 55 mile per hour work zone speed limit. Appropriate caution is required.
