At the June 27 Illinois Toll Highway Authority meeting the board is expected to award contracts for $160 million in highway work as part of the $2.2 billion Jane Addams I-90 widening project which got underway this spring. Hoffman Estates based Plote Construction is low bidder on two of the major projects, totaling about $73 million, for reconstruction and widening of the westbound lanes to the west of the Elgin Toll Plaza. Plote is also already working on reconstruction of the !-90/Illinois 47 interchange in Huntley.
Winnebago County based William Charles Construction of Loves Park is expected to be awarded the contract for widening of I-90 in both directions between Lake Street and Anthony Road, at the same board meeting.
