Hello @johnqfig !

A new interstate diverging diamond interchange (DDI) is a big change that I’m sure state and regional leadership will want to make sure gets updated as soon as possible and correctly - thanks for posting about it.

You can reach out to map editors in Illinois using Discuss by posting in the dedicated state forum/channel/topic/subcategory/whatever we call it now on Discuss: (Illinois - Waze Discuss)

Thanks!

Alternatively, if you frequently drive through the area, you can drop a map issue report in the area and then watch the inbox in the Waze app for a message from a local editor who can help you improve the map there.

Thanks. I’m not sure how to do that. I did get to a “live” map and was able to click on the was map editor, but not at all familiar with it. I did see a couple of comments related to the lack of updates to the area. Some of the new roads are showing up on east side of 55 which is were all the new construction and roads are going in. But the map does not show the new entrances and exits from 55 to 59. Not sure if the roads that are mapped are open all the way, but will try to drive around a little bit so see if Olympic Blvd no goes through as show on the map. Several ware house have been completed and the work on the new casino / parking garage is well on it’s way.
