Peotone, IL – Residents of Will County and surrounding areas are invited to attend an important public meeting on Wednesday, November 13, to provide input on future access improvements to Interstate 57. The meeting will be held from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. at the Will County Fair Atrium, located at 710 S. West Street in Peotone.

IDOT encourages community members to join in to share feedback and learn more about existing conditions and potential changes to the highway infrastructure. Attendees can also register and learn about the study through online resources provided by IDOT. Those who require special assistance, including interpreters, are advised to contact IDOT five days in advance.
