CREST HILL – Building upon the smart infrastructure investments supported by State Senator Meg Loughran Cappel, the Illinois Department of Transportation announced an investment of $6.4 million in road improvement projects in Romeoville.

“By improving our state’s aging infrastructure, we are improving the lives of all residents,” said Loughran Cappel (D-Shorewood). “This significant investment will increase safety, bring good-paying jobs to the community and boost the local economy.”

As part of IDOT’s latest Multi-Year Plan under Rebuild Illinois, the district Loughran Cappel represents will see three infrastructure projects totaling $6.4 million next year.

These projects are part of IDOT’s Multi-Year Plan, a $40 billion investment in construction projects for the next six fiscal years. The project invests in all modes of transportation: roads and bridges, aviation, transit, freight and passenger rail, waterways, as well as bicycle and pedestrian accommodations.
