In the U.S. state of Illinois, Interstate 80 is an Interstate highway that runs from the Quad Cities east to south of Chicago. It is a main east-west route for trafficcoming and going through Illinois, especially for cross-country truckers.

After crossing the Mississippi River near Rapids City, Illinois, Interstate 80 runs south for about 10 miles (16 km) to a junction with Interstate 74. There is an interchange with Interstate 88 along this leg. At the I-74/I-80 junction, Interstate 80 continues east, while Interstate 74 continues west and south. Interstate 80 then roughly parallels U.S. 6 near such cities as Geneseo, Princeton, Peru, LaSalle (near which it intersects Interstate 39), Ottawa, Morris, and Joliet (west of which it has a junction with Interstate 55). At New Lenox, I-80 intersects the Veterans Memorial Tollway (I-355), which heads North into the Western Suburbs of Chicago. I-80 continues into the South Suburbs of Chicago, picking up a third lane each way just west of LaGrange Road. At Tinley Park, I-80 meets I-57. Near Hazel Crest, I-80 merges into the busy eight-lane Tri-State Tollway, and remains part of the Tollway for about 5 miles (8 km) until it becomes the Kingery Expressway, a freeway that connects with the Borman Expressway in Indiana.
