Dixie Highway to close for several weeks north of 175th Street

Barriers were placed along the side of Dixie Highway at the intersection with 175th Street this week in preparation for the closure of a short section of Dixie Highway on May 20. The road soon will be closed from 175th Street north to 174th Street while crews replace a culvert, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation. The nearly $400,000 project is expected to be finished by July 5.
