Welcome to Route 66 in Illinois!

We’re glad you stopped by for a visit, and we hope you find everything you need to know (and some stuff that’s just plain fun) about traveling our Byway.

Route 66 defined a remarkable era in the growth of our nation. As it threaded its way across eight states, it left its indelible mark on our nation’s physical, historical and cultural landscape. No other road symbolizes optimism, freedom and the American Dream quite like Route 66.

So browse, link-up and learn about our road. And, hey, if we’ve missed something you want, give us a holler. We’ll be glad to do whatever we can to help you out.
