Relocated Illinois 3/New Mississippi River Bridge Corridors of Protection

Welcome to the Corridor Protection Public Hearing Study website. The Illinois Department of Transportation is conducting a preliminary engineering and environmental study for the Relocated Illinois 3/New Mississippi River Bridge Corridors of Protection. The Relocated Illinois 3 corridor is from Sauget to Venice and the New Mississippi River Bridge corridor begins east of Illinois 203 and goes to the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial bridge.

IDOT will share details on the viability and feasibility of each corridor as mentioned in Illinois Highway Code 605 ILCS 5/4-510 and encourage public participation until Dec. 16.

Phase II (Design) consists of refining the design to develop contract plans and land acquisition. Phase III (Construction) consists of the actual construction of the project.
