Heard on: Tazewell IL Public Works Group Calls

Okay, I need you guys to stand by, get down to 29, but don't go north or south of Route 6, just hang there.

00:07

There's an accident, we need to do some traffic control.

00:10

I'm headed down that way right now.

00:12

All right, we already headed, started heading towards the arrow, so do you want us to head back towards 6?

00:20

Yeah, if you could, just stage right there before.

00:22

Six, I'm going to head down to.

00:24

It's somewhere in Rome, but I'll get there and let you guys know.

00:30

So, Peoria One, that main street location at 29 is just north of the Shell station in Rome.

00:41

Peoria 26, Peoria 34, Peoria One.

00:45

Go ahead. Continue north up just north of that gas station in Rome.

00:51

The state police have the road shut down to at least one lane and assist them as you can.

00:58

And I will get there as soon as I can.

01:00

10-4. Peoria 21A, this is Peoria 1.

01:06

Go ahead.

01:07

Yeah, this is probably going to take a while, so I'm not exactly sure what we're going to be able to do, but I'll keep you informed.

01:14

Just see if there's some place you can spray just yourself right now.

01:18

10-4. Ten four.

01:20

Yeah, just keep me posted.

01:21

If it's going to be that long, I'll just head down and start on 24 .

01:26

They're already talking to reconstruction, which will be a couple of hours.

01:29

So go ahead and head to 24 .
