Traffic Shift for Illinois-Bound I-74

Some changes are in store for motorists crossing the new I-74 bridge. Starting Wednesday (7/14), and weather permitting, they'll have to follow a new traffic pattern in the Illinois-bound lanes in Moline.

Just after crossing the river into Illinois, motorists should watch for traffic signs and orange barrels guiding them to a newly completed section. There'll be two lanes on the Illinois- bound side, with the right lane allowing vehicles to exit at 6th Avenue, or to continue south toward Avenue of the Cities and other exits.

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
