Information maintained by the Legislative
Reference Bureau
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.

In addition to whatever powers the Department may by law now

new State highway or the relocation, reconstruction, extension, widening,
straightening, alteration, repair, maintenance or improvement of an
existing State highway (including extensions of a new or existing State
highway through or into a municipality upon a new or existing street) that
the line or tracks of a railroad or railway company or the wires, poles,
pipes or other facilities of a public utility, which are not then located
in or upon a public street or highway, be relocated, and the Department and

the Illinois Commerce Commission, concerning such relocation, the
Department is authorized to purchase, or to acquire through the exercise of
the right of eminent domain under the eminent domain law of the State, such
easements, rights, lands or other property as may be necessary for the
relocation of said railroad or railway line or tracks or other public
utility facilities.
The Department is authorized to convey such easements, rights, lands or
