IDOT said these lane closures are needed to perform emergency pavement maintenance at this location.

"The Troy Maintenance Yard will make the needed repairs," IDOT said. "Full access will be restored as soon as possible.

"Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. 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."
