92 Ill. Adm. Code 542.100
Introduction
Section 542
Section 542.100 Introduction
a) This Part has been developed to regulate the use of business
logos displayed along various freeways. It establishes standards,
specifications, and financial responsibility for a program of placing business
logos on specific service panels. The displayed business logos will provide
motorists with travel related directional information to facilities offering
gas, food, lodging, camping, and 24-hour pharmacies.
b) This program applies to freeways within the State of Illinois
that are under the jurisdiction of the Department. However, because of the
close spacing of interchanges, presence of existing critical directional signs,
and congestion in the densely populated Chicago, Peoria and St. Louis
metropolitan areas, this program will not apply to the following sections of
highways:
1) Interstate 57 from the southerly Chicago city limits northerly
to its terminal with Interstate 94;
2) Interstate 55 from Interstate 294 northerly to Lake Michigan;
3) Interstate 90 from the Indiana state line to Exit 3 northbound;
4) Interstate 94 from the southerly Chicago city limits northerly
to the Wisconsin state line;
5) Interstate 290;
6) Interstate 55/70 from Interstate 255 southerly to the Missouri
state line;
7) Interstate 64 from, but not including, Exit 6 westerly to the
Missouri state line;
8) Interstate 74 through Peoria between
and including
the Sterling Avenue interchange (Exit 88) and the
Washington Avenue interchange (Exit 95), except for the eastbound off-ramp to
Sterling Avenue and the westbound off-ramp to Washington Street;
9) Interstate 74 from, and including, Exit 4 northerly to the
Iowa state line;
10) Illinois 394 except for the Glenwood Dyer Road and US 30
interchanges; and
11) Any other freeway in Cook and DuPage Counties except for
Interstate 80.
c) In an urbanized area where three consecutive freeway
interchanges are each spaced less than one and one-quarter miles apart, logo
signing will not be provided.
