Roadway changes near Farm Progress Show increase safety.

Highlights from the article: When it comes to moving slow-going traffic into the Farm Progress Show grounds off Route 48 near Decatur, Ill., Bruce Bird, Macon County engineer, thinks of new pavement added to the route as storage - with enough room to keep a large backup from forming out to Interstate 72 at Exit 144. Since the last Farm Progress Show in Decatur in 2017, this slight road adjustment between Route 48 and Brush College Road - the main access to the Farm Progress Show - is the only change from the norm.
