Iovite considers improving plant access with a proposed road north of Iovite linking to North Street in Park Forest while restricting trucks over 8,000 pounds on North Street. City officials note North Street is not a dedicated trucking route, aiming to protect pavement. Alternatives include Central Park Avenue toward Sauk Trail, with collaboration among Iovite, Matteson, and Park Forest officials as the plan moves to the Matteson Plan Commission if expansion is approved.
