Tollway seeks
landscaping comments

DOWNERS GROVE — The Illinois State Toll Highway Authority Board’s Strategic Planning Committee is considering a new landscape policy to address requests for removal and trimming of trees and vegetation on tollway property.

The proposed policy is available for review at www.illinoistollway.com. Public comments may be provided via email, U.S. mail or in person at an upcoming committee meeting.

The policy would create guidelines for municipalities and businesses along the tollway system to request trimming or removal of trees on tollway property to clear obstructions or undesirable vegetation.

The public comment period will extend through Feb. 1.

GED testing offered

NEW LENOX — Dates for the GED test for the months of January through March have been announced. The GED is a two-day test.

They include Jan. 14 and 16, Jan. 19 and 26, Jan. 22 and 24, and Jan. 28 and 30.

Testing sites are the Will County Office Building in Joliet and once a month at Joliet Junior College’s Romeoville campus.
