best route through Chicago?
I was wondering if someone could give me some guidance on the best
route to take for an upcoming trip? I can run routes based on actual miles and times in my travel software, but I am looking for more practical info like "don't go that way, that road will be jammed at that time of day." I will be coming into the Chicagoland area from the west on the 88 tollway. My destination is Libertyville, way up north (near Waukegan or Gurnee). I need to be there by 10am. If I come clear into the Chicagoland area, I'd be hitting the 88 & the North/South tollway interchange at about 8:45am. Microsoft Streets & Trips software says take 88 in, then up the Tri-state to the Libertyville area. I am doubting that is the "best" way to go. Should I go the North/South, to 290? It seems though that once the 290 ends, I've got some "meandering" to do through city roads. Should I skip Chicago and take I39 up from the 88 to Rockford? Then take the Northwest tollway back into Chicago area, and at some point (the Barrington area?) start meandering through city roads to get to Libertyville. At that time in the morning, which route would you take? Thanks! --multiplaza.nl.nu-- |
