Federal funds are allowing the city of Champaign to make plans to upgrade and widen the northern part of the intersection of First Street and Windsor Road.

CHAMPAIGN – With the help of $490,000 in federal funds, the city now hopes to improve the north part of the First Street-Windsor Road intersection next summer.

The work would include widening First Street to four and five lanes north of the intersection. First Street currently narrows to two lanes 600 feet north of the Windsor Road intersection.
