Establishes safety and detour requirements for Illinois road construction zones.
The Construction Zone Safe Detour Act mandates that GPS service providers ensure someone is available 24/7 to receive detour requests from emergency services, Illinois State Police, or the Department of Transportation. It prohibits the Department from simultaneously conducting construction on secondary routes or parallel primary highways, except in emergencies. The Department must reimburse local governments for road damages caused by detours around construction zones.
