Interstate 290 (Illinois)

The main goal of the review is to make the article accessible to most Wikipedia readers without leaning too heavily on roadgeek-specific topics. In other words, is this article interesting?

There are also some leftovers from the Eisenhower Expressway --> I-290 merge, but I figure that will be caught and corrected with time. —Rob (talk) 23:17, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Ok I finally figured this out. Nasty, you have to click on the header on the link to go to the article, then click on Discussion to go to the talk page, then click on the "a request" to get here. Wow! No wonder no-one helps out on PR, it's too hard to figure out how to do so!

Well enough ranting. Anyway I'll re-iterate my point: it would be nice to have geographical place names that aren't known solely to people in the Chicago area. The current place names are all smaller suburbs (I assume) that I have never heard of, so I can't really make out where this road is. Maury 00:04, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, a map would benefit greatly. It would have to be a special map that could highlight each of those segments, somehow. —Rob (talk) 16:57, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

This comment about the Eisenhower Extension --- "As of 2006, there are no plans to fix any of these issues."

Not quite true (I live in Elmhurst within one mile of this!). It is a known problem known to IDOT and local communities. Last discussion, mentioned at least one "flyover ramp" and consideration for better access to Route 20 East (Proviso rail / truck terminal) --- BUT construction would likley not occur -- until the O'Hare "west bypass" (2 miles north) becomes reality or is addressed..
