Cash Fairclo of Urbana, formerly of this city, holds the contract and has machines on site. The project aims to cover the route to Marengo and beyond with a cement surface and a modern viaduct at Genoa to reduce grade crossing accidents, improving access for Sycamore and other areas while boosting local commerce.
