The Illinois Department of Transportation announced Wednesday that construction work on the Interstate 80 bridge over the Mississippi River will be suspended at 2 p.m. since there's increased traffic on I-80 after the flooding that's causing limited access to the other river crossings.
We're following a story from OurQuadCities.com news partners that part of a crane working on the new Interstate 74 bridge has fallen into the Mississippi River. You can see it here.
By now we should be used to construction detours and delays associated with the construction of the new I-74 bridge. The next one is gonna be a little messy.
