The Illinois Department of Transportation says motorists should expect delays this weekend on eastbound Interstate 64 in St. Clair County due to lane closures.

Eastbound traffic will be reduced to one lane between Illinois 157 and Illinois 159 starting at 9 p.m. Friday. Two lanes are scheduled to reopen by 7 a.m. Monday, weather permitting, according to IDOT.

The closure is part of ongoing improvements in the I-64 corridor.

Drivers are encouraged to use alternate routes and to slow down, watch for changing conditions and obey work-zone signs.
