John Deere Road work begins June 29

MOLINE - The Illinois Department of Transportation announced today that lane closures will begin on westbound John Deere Road (Illinois 5) in Moline on Monday, June 29. The work zone is between Seventh and 16th streets.

Two lanes will be closed in this area as workers patch the road. This project is scheduled to be completed on Wednesday, July 1.

Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area and be prepared for slow and stopped traffic. To avoid the work area, when feasible, use of alternate routes should be considered. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to changed conditions and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits, refrain from using mobile devices, and be alert for workers and equipment.
