Illinois Terminal East Parking Lot Construction

Allison Haines

Big changes are happening near MTD’s Illinois Terminal! Construction in our east parking lot has been underway since Thursday, November 21, but we are pleased to report that as progress is being made, the sidewalk on the south side of Chester St. has been reopened.

Pedestrians crossing under the Chester St. viaduct may resume using the pedestrian pathway on the south side of the street. Because Chester St. is still closed to vehicular traffic, vehicles must continue to enter and exit the parking lot via Water St.

Construction is estimated to last up to two months. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience. As always, please call 217.384.3577 if you have questions.
