History
SBI Route 83 was modern Illinois Route 17 from New Boston to Galva.[3] In 1941 it was changed to the Lynwood-to-Antioch routing, replacing Illinois Route 52 and IL 54.[4] In 1998, IL 83 was routed slightly north onto 127th Street, from Cal Sag Road.[2] The renumbering was part of a major reconstruction project of the IL 50 intersection with I-294 (Tri-State Tollway).
As part of sign replacement accompanying the renumbering, IL 83 was added to the northbound IL 50 exit from southbound I-294, as the new northbound IL 50 ramp leads directly to IL 83 first. However, IL 83
A $13.4 million construction project was completed in northern Lake County on a four-mile (6.4 km) section of IL 83 from Petite Lake Road to the Wisconsin state line. Changes included adding a center turn lane and intersection reconfigurations at Grass Lake Road, IL 173, and North Avenue. The project was completed in fall 2010.[5]
