The I-355 Tollway: Threatening A Region's Quality of Life Sierra Club is working with local citizens and and other environmental groups, led by the Environmental Law and Policy Center, to promote alternatives to the proposed I-355 Tollway Extensions from Bolingbrook to Peotone. The proposed I-355 Tollway cuts through a region of small towns, homes in wooded settings, forest preserves, and prime farmland. The character of the region will change forever if the tollway is built. I-355 will draw population to the area, generating more traffic on local roads, runaway development, and sprawl. Government officials are allowing existing roads and bridges in the area to languish in disrepair. Yet the Illinois Toll Authority wants to spend $750 million for the first 12.5 miles of I-355. That's $60 million a mile! For the price of the tollway local communities could build 117 elementary schools, 233 libraries, or 200 new parks. In addition, all proposed local road projects in Will County could be completed six times over. Abundant open space, fine schools, and a family-friendly environment attract residents to southern Cook and Will Counties. Now these very same qualities are threatened by the proposed I-355 tollway. Here's what the tollway means for the region:
