Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(430 ILCS 105/2) (from Ch. 121, par. 314.2)
(This Act was repealed by P.A. 89-7, which has been held unconstitutional)
Sec. 2.
At all times during which men are working where one-way
traffic is utilized, the contractor or his authorized agent in charge of
such construction will be required to furnish no fewer than two flagmen,
one at each end of the portion of highway or bridge on which only
one-way traffic is permitted, and at least 100 feet away from the
nearest point of the highway or bridge on which only one-way traffic is
safe and permitted. The flagmen shall be equipped with safe, suitable,
and proper signal devices as prescribed in the Manual on Uniform Traffic
Control Devices for Streets and Highways published by
the Department of Transportation, and shall so use such devices as to
inform approaching motorists to stop or proceed. In addition, safe,
suitable, and proper signals and signs as prescribed in the Manual shall
be so placed as to warn
approaching persons of the existence of any portion of highway or bridge
upon which only one-way traffic is safe and permitted. At bridge
construction or bridge repair sites, where one-way traffic is utilized,
traffic control signals conforming to the Manual may be installed and
operated in lieu of, or in addition to, flagmen. Whenever the Department
of Transportation or local authorities determine that a bridge or highway
construction site requires the closing of a road to through traffic, the
contract documents relating to such construction may specify alternate
procedures
for flagging and controlling traffic, when such procedures have been approved
by the Department. When alternate procedures are not included, traffic
control and flagging will be as prescribed in the first paragraph of this
Section.
