ends here at I-57. I-74 is in just 2 miles. University Avenue
will take you to University of Illinois. Near Champaign. |

It
is unusual for IDOT to place a shield at the exit on an interstate. |

IL

known as Cicero Ave. |
I-57
NB at I-80. There is no direct connection between I-57 and I-294 (an
interchange will be built), so that explains the "To I-294" shield on the
right. Currently, the only way to get to the Tri-State from I-57 is
via I-80. |
East

Kedzie
Avenue is the last exit on I-80 before it runs on the Tri-State for a few
miles. |
I-80
EB 2 miles west of the Tri-State. Usually under the direction of the
interstate, the tollway puts "Tollway." However, these signs say
"Tri-State Toll" and "Tri-State Tollway," so they must be made by IDOT. |
Also
note the use of Wisconsin and Indiana as control cities for the Tri-State.
Other places on the tollway use Milwaukee as the northern control. |
