Interstate 88 (west)
Encyclopedia
Interstate 88 is an intrastate Interstate Highway in the state of Illinois
. It runs from an interchange with Interstate 80 near Silvis
and Moline
to an interchange with Interstates 290
and 294
in Hillside
, near Chicago. Interstate 88 is 140.6 miles (226.27 km) long.
, and before that, IL 190.
The reason for I-88's original designation and continued existence as an Interstate has to do with a technicality in the old National Maximum Speed Law
(NMSL). Originally passed in 1973, NMSL was amended in 1987 to permit 65-mph (105 km/h) speed limits on rural stretches of Interstate Highways only. In spite of the fact that IL 5 was fully up to Interstate standards, it still had to carry a 55 mph (88 km/h) limit because of this wording in NMSL. The Illinois Department of Transportation
(IDOT) and Illinois State Toll Highway Authority
(ISTHA) petitioned the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials
(AASHTO) to re-designate IL 5 as an Interstate, and in 1987, AASHTO approved the request and assigned the Interstate 88 numbering to the highway. NMSL would be completely repealed only eight years later in 1995, but the I-88 shields remain up to this day, even though Illinois 110 shields are being posted throughout the entire Illinois I-88, since it is now part of the Chicago to Kansas City Expressway project, bannered with special "CKC" logos.
in northern Illinois
.
Opened November 21, 1958, it was initially designated as U.S. Route 30 Toll, and later Illinois Route 190. The original routing extended from the Interstate 294
interchange near Hillside
to Illinois Route 47
near Sugar Grove
. Illinois Route 56
was overlapped on the East-West Tollway between North Aurora
and Sugar Grove in 1965. That length of Route 56 makes it the only state road to be concurrent with one of the tollways of the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority.
When the East-West Tollway was extended to Dixon, Illinois
in the 1970s, the Illinois 190 numbering was removed from the stretch between Aurora
and Sugar Grove, making that section strictly Illinois 56. Once complete, the new routing of the combined tollway and freeway between Interstate 80 near the Quad Cities and Interstate 294 became designated as Illinois Route 5
. In the late 1980s, it was renumbered as Interstate 88.
The road is officially a tollway east of Rock Falls, IL
, starting at the intersection with U.S. Route 30
at mile marker 44, to its terminus near Hillside. West of U.S. 30 to Interstate 80, Interstate 88 is a freeway. The tollway portion is 96 miles (154 km) long.
After the death of Illinois native and former President Ronald Reagan
in 2004, the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority
voted to rename the toll roadway "Ronald Reagan Memorial Tollway" in his memory, as it passes near his birthplace of Tampico
and grazes the south outskirts of his boyhood hometown of Dixon
. The tollway portion of I-88 was previously known as the "East West Tollway" and is still displayed as such on some signs near Chicago.
There is no direct off-ramp access to U.S. Route 52
, Illinois Route 23
, Illinois Route 25
, and Illinois Route 83
(northbound). In addition, I-88 merges with Illinois Route 56
for a short distance. During the merge, Illinois 56 is the only tolled state route in Illinois.
Although a federal law, 23 U.S.C. § 111, prohibits the operation of commercial rest areas constructed after January 1, 1960, on interstate highways, the DeKalb oasis
was constructed at milepost 93 in 1975, prior to the route's designation as I-88 and remains in operation.
, I-88 has no spur route
s. None are planned for the near future. The proposed Prairie Parkway
limited access highway will terminate at its north end via an interchange with I-88 near Kaneville, west of Illinois Route 47
.
A fourth lane was added between Finley Road and Illinois 83 (mile 137) from December 2007 to the end of 2009. The portion of I-88 from IL 83 (mile 137) to York Road (mile 139) was widened and reconstructed in 2008–2009.
On the western portion of the work zone, I-88 was widened to three lanes between Orchard Road (mile 115) and the Aurora Toll Plaza (mile 117.5), a distance of 3.4 miles (5.5 km). This includes a new bridge over the Fox River
, reconstruction of the interchange with Illinois Route 31
, and removal of a Burlington Northern Santa Fe bridge just west of IL 31.
A $36 million interchange at Eola Road in Aurora opened on November 20, 2009 after approximately ten years of planning and less than one year of actual construction. It is the first set of ramp toll booths which accept only I-Pass users without providing for cash tolls.
The repaving used a new construction technique called rubblization
, where large machines smashed the existing pavement into small pieces to create a crushed, high-quality aggregate base for the new pavement. This saves the time and expense of transporting the old pavement away and bringing in a new base for the road. It marked the first wide-scale use of rubblization equipment.

2005-2009 reconstruction
As a part of its $6.3 billion renovation project, the ISTHA has budgeted $991.6 million for I-88. By the end of 2009, $705.8 million in I-88 construction has been completed. In 2005, ISTHA initiated a reconstruction and widening project for most of I-88 between Sugar Grove and York Road, a distance of 25 miles (40 km). On January 5, 2006 a fourth lane opened between Illinois 59 (mile 123.5) and Washington Street (mile 126.5), about 3 miles (5 km). In total, 5.7 miles (9.2 km) of roadway will be reconstructed, with construction continuing through 2008 from Washington Street to Finley Road(mile 131). Three lanes of traffic were reconstructed with continuously-reinforced concrete, and a fourth outside travel lane was added as a part of the project.A fourth lane was added between Finley Road and Illinois 83 (mile 137) from December 2007 to the end of 2009. The portion of I-88 from IL 83 (mile 137) to York Road (mile 139) was widened and reconstructed in 2008–2009.
On the western portion of the work zone, I-88 was widened to three lanes between Orchard Road (mile 115) and the Aurora Toll Plaza (mile 117.5), a distance of 3.4 miles (5.5 km). This includes a new bridge over the Fox River
