The Illinois Department of Transportation has launched a Web site offering one-stop travel information for truck and car drivers.

The new site, www.illinoisroads.info, includes information on trucking permits, road construction, winter road conditions, traveler safety, maps and other travel tidbits, such as rest area locations.

The site also includes links for truckers to access designated truck routes, oversize/overweight permit forms and applications, routes restricted to no permits, vertical clearances for marked and unmarked routes, a weekly restriction list and weigh station locations.

"These are some of the most visited sites on the department's Web site," Illinois Transportation Secretary Kirk Brown said in a statement. "Instead of the public having to navigate through our entire Web site for travel information, we felt we could better serve travelers by having all of that information in one location, and at an Internet address that is easier to remember."

IDOT's main Web site, www.dot.state.il.us, will continue to offer the same information as www.illinoisroads.info.
