U.S. Route 67 in Illinois

The Roseville Bypass was one of the last bypasses for this section and was completed in 2002.

The original US-67 road passed through Virginia on what is now IL-78 (Jacksonville to Virginia) and then on IL-125 (Virginia to Beardstown), which follows the historic Beardstown Post Road and Ohio & Mississippi Railroad right-of-way (later part of Baltimore and Ohio Railroad (B&O) system before abandonment) between Beardstown and Springfield.

Exiting Macomb, US 67 is a two-lane highway until it reaches just west of Chapin.
