Officials push for Prairie Parkway money to fund Route 47 project
GENEVA – Kane County has signed on to urge state road officials to steer a chunk of federal money formerly dedicated to a failed highway project to projects that would improve traffic flow at the county’s south end.
Wednesday, the County Board Transportation Committee endorsed a resolution that would request the Illinois Department of Transportation redirect millions of dollars from the defunct Prairie Parkway project to upgrade the Interstate 88 interchange at Route 47 in Sugar Grove and widen Route 47 from Sugar Grove to Yorkville.
The proposal also drew a strong endorsement from County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen.
