If you take interstate 80 at night and pass up Houbolt Road then this is for you.
Construction Update: I-80/Houbolt Rd in Joliet
A project managed by the City of Joliet to reconstruct the Interstate 80 interchange at Houbolt Road in Joliet is nearly complete! This weekend, interchange ramps will be temporarily closed to safely convert the existing interchange into the full diverging-diamond configuration.
👉Starting at 8 p.m. Friday, the ramps from eastbound and westbound I-80 to Houbolt Road and the Houbolt Road ramps to eastbound and westbound I-80 will be closed.
👉A detour will direct motorists to use U.S. 6 and Larkin Avenue (Illinois 7).
All ramps are anticipated to reopen by 10 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 28, when the new traffic pattern will be in place.
Remember to slow down and watch for changing traffic patterns.
