Proposed Route 20 Project In Kane County To Be Discussed At Hearing

ELGIN, IL — A public hearing is planned to discuss the Illinois Department of Transportation's proposed Route 20 ramp project in Kane County.

Locals can attend the event scheduled to take place from 4-7 p.m. April 25 at The Centre of Elgin, 100 Symphony Way.
