Traffic light could halt Old Plank Road Trail plans
The Management Commission of the Old Plank Road Trail seeks confirmation from IDOT about whether a traffic signal at Route 45 and Nebraska Street would prevent an overpass. Frankfort officials prefer signals for safety while exploring future overpass possibilities. The trail from Park Forest to New Lenox may begin opening this year with full completion planned for spring 1996.

Chicago Heights primary goes on despite April doubt
A federal judge ruled the Chicago Heights primary election should proceed Feb 28 while the April 4 general election faces unresolved issues. The ruling upholds a consent decree that created the aldermanic system, with ongoing questions about mayoral treasurer and clerk appointments and state law compliance. Local plaintiffs welcomed the decision, calling for a new form of government, while others warn of potential legal and procedural conflicts ahead.
