Fifth Street Road Update

[July 18, 2026]  The contractors have made good progress with the Fifth Street Road Project. Utility relocation continues to take place along with widening of the road from Connolley Road west to Interstate 55. They have also been joint sealing, backfilling, grading and other restoration work. Milling and paving operations are scheduled to begin the first part of next week from Connolley Road west. Once the utilities have been relocated near Westminster, Memorial Park Road and Holly Drive, work will begin again to install storm sewer. As work continues, please be patient and use extreme caution when traveling in the area.

If there are any questions or concerns, please contact the Street Department at 217-732-4655.
