Illinois Route 1
Encyclopedia
Illinois Route 1 is a state highway in the U.S. state
of Illinois
. Running parallel to the Indiana border, it is also the longest state road, starting on the south side of Chicago as Halsted Street
at the intersection with 95th Street
, south to a free ferry crossing to Kentucky
at Cave-In-Rock
on the Ohio River
. This is a distance of 325.19 miles (523.34 km).
to Metropolis
.
When U.S. Highway 45 was established from Norris City to Metropolis, Illinois 1 shifted east to Cave-In-Rock. Kentucky State Route 91 continues across the Ohio River.
In 1937, Illinois 1 was shifted southeast away from Albion
to directly connect Mount Carmel
and Grayville
. Eventually, Illinois Route 15
and Illinois Route 130
replaced Illinois 1 to Albion.
In the 1950s, a freeway, then known as the Calumet Expressway, was constructed south from Chicago. This was designated Illinois 1, while the old highway along Halsted Street was signed Alternate Illinois Route 1. By 1964, Illinois 1 was restored to its old alignment, and Illinois Route 394
was applied to the expressway south of the portion designated as Interstate 94
(the I-94 portion now being known as the Bishop Ford Freeway
). At this time, Illinois 1 was discontinued north of Interstate 57.
, Illinois 1 does not pass through many towns for the next 50 miles until it reaches Marshall, although it does come close to Robinson. The road then runs through Paris, where it begins a multiplex with US 150. At Danville, US 150 splits off towards Champaign and US 136 follows Illinois 1 north for about 12 miles. Illinois 1 is more of a major route north of Danville, since it connects Danville with the Chicago area. Illinois 1 runs in a relatively north direction north of Danville, passing through Hoopeston and Danville before reaching the outskirts of Kankakee. Illinois 1 then zigzags through Momence and Grant Park along with Illinois 17. At Goodenow, a lot of traffic merges onto Illinois 394, while most of the local traffic stays on Illinois 1. Illinois 394 eventually turns into I-94 in the southern suburbs. From Goodenow, Illinois 1 runs through numerous Chicago suburbs such as Chicago Heights and Harvey before ending at Interstate 57 on Chicago's south side.
, which goes through downstate Illinois
and enters the Chicago area as it passes through Beecher
. From here it follows the Vincennes Trail north and splits into the Bishop Ford Freeway
(formerly the Calumet Expressway) and Chicago Road (which was one of the original roads into Chicago from the south) The Dixie Highway follows Chicago Road through Crete
, Steger
, South Chicago Heights, (at which point it meets up with the Sauk Trail
.
As Route 1 continues north, it has a junction with Lincoln Highway
(US 30). This is sometimes known as the "Crossroads of the Nation", because it is the intersection of two major auto trail
s. This intersection helped cities such as Chicago Heights thrive in its early days. Approximately two blocks after this intersection, Dixie Highway splits from Chicago Road and continues north through Flossmoor
and Homewood
. At the north end of Homewood's downtown, the road turns and goes under the Illinois Central Railroad
tracks, which now carries both the Metra Electric Line
and Amtrak
trains. The road continues north through East Hazel Crest
and past the Markham Rail Yards and under the Tri-State Tollway
.
Past the tollway, the road enters Hazel Crest
, Markham
and then Harvey
. As the road continues, creating a border between the towns of Dixmoor
and Posen
, its name changes to Western Avenue
.
When the road enters Blue Island
, it splits into two streets, (Western and Gregory), and realigns itself into one when it reaches Burr Oak Avenue. The road then enters the city of Chicago. Through Chicago, Western Avenue is a major boulevard, which continues north through the city to the town of Evanston (where it is named Asbury Street), which is where the Dixie Highway ends.
