Illinois law enforcement today announced the
July 4th You Drink & Drive. You Lose crackdown on impaired drivers as new data shows an overwhelming number of late-night motor vehicle fatalities involve a drinking driver.
IDOT and the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority (Tollway) have contracted with Mason Tillman Associates, Ltd. (MTA), a national public policy firm,
to conduct an availability analysis of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs) and a disparity study (study) of Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Female Business Enterprises (FBEs) in the Illinois highway, Toll highway, and airport construction contracting and design services industries.
Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) Secretary Gary Hannig today urged Illinois drivers to buckle up and stay sober as they get ready to hit the roadways for the Fourth of July weekend. Secretary Hannig also announced that
IDOT will make sure roads are open wherever possible, but some projects will continue, resulting in lane closures over the holiday weekend.
IDOT District 2 is in the process of implementing a
pilot program of installing rain barrels at select rest areas and welcome centers throughout the district. Turtle Creek Welcome Center has been chosen as the first facility in which the rain barrels will be installed.
IDOT’s Office of Small Business Services will be
publishing two Request for Proposals (RFPs) within the next few weeks seeking qualified vendors with experience in Illinois’ transportation-related construction industry who can provide management assistance (the RFP will cover Districts 4 - 9) and technical assistance (the RFP will cover Districts 1 - 9) to its Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs).
The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) alongside Illinois State Police (ISP) and the Illinois Tollway want to remind motorists
construction season is underway and warn that tough laws are in place to buckle down on speeders in work zones.
