伊利诺伊州皮奥里亚诺克斯维尔大道边坡塌陷抢修 临时工程预计11月中旬完成
伊利诺伊州皮奥里亚县皮奥里亚市诺克斯维尔大道一段道路10月26日仍在紧急抢修中，起因是今夏连日强降雨造成的边坡塌陷。伊利诺伊州交通部发言人保罗·瓦佩尔介绍，塌陷路段位于诺克斯维尔大道西因弗内斯街与北皮克彻路交汇处至西诺斯巷之间，强降雨导致边坡失稳，并造成涵洞与结构损坏，还损及伊利诺伊美国水务公司的供水主管。
目前水务公司已完成供水主管改线，交通部正在修复边坡侵蚀和涵洞损坏，并修建临时边坡防护、新临时雨水管道和路肩，保障通行安全，直至永久工程上马。临时工程预计11月中旬完成，具体取决于天气；目前该处伊利诺伊州40号公路北行方向仅剩一条车道，完工后将恢复双向通行。
更大的永久工程定于2027年初开工，交通部希望在2027年施工季结束前完成。交通部提醒司机经过施工区时务必减速谨慎驾驶。
Emergency Repairs Continue on Peoria's Knoxville Avenue After a Rain-Caused Slope Failure; Temporary Work Expected Done by Mid-November
PEORIA, Ill. — A stretch of Knoxville Avenue in Peoria remained under emergency repair on October 26, after days of heavy rain over the summer caused a slope failure. Illinois Department of Transportation spokesman Paul Wappel said the failed section lies on Knoxville Avenue between the junction of West Inverness Street and North Picture Road and West North Lane; the heavy rain destabilized the slope, causing culvert and structural damage and damaging an Illinois American Water water main.
The water company has completed relocating its main, and the department is repairing the erosion and culvert damage and building temporary slope protection, a new temporary storm sewer and shoulder work to keep travel safe until the permanent project begins. The temporary work is expected to be complete by mid-November, depending on weather; Illinois Route 40 northbound at the site is currently down to one lane and will return to two lanes when the work is finished.
A larger permanent project is set to begin in early 2027, and the department hopes to complete it by the end of the 2027 construction season. The department reminds motorists to slow down and use caution in the work zone.
