 (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 11-602)Sec. 11-602. Alteration of limits by Department.   Whenever the Department  determines,  upon the basis of an engineering and traffic investigation concerning any  highway for which the Department has maintenance responsibility, that a  maximum speed limit prescribed in Section 11-601 of this Chapter is greater  or less than is reasonable or safe with respect to the conditions found  to exist at any intersection or other place on such highway or along any  part or zone thereof, the Department shall determine and declare a reasonable  and safe absolute maximum speed limit applicable to such intersection or  place, or along such part or zone.  However, such limit shall conform with the maximum speed limit restrictions provided for in Section 11-601 of this Code. Where  a highway under the Department's jurisdiction  is contiguous to school property, the Department may, at the school district's  request, set a  reduced maximum speed limit for student safety purposes in the portion of the  highway that faces the school property and in the portions of the highway that  extend  one-quarter mile in each direction from the opposite ends of the school  property. A limit determined and  declared as provided in this Section becomes effective, and suspends the  applicability of the limit  prescribed  in Section 11-601 of this Chapter, when appropriate signs giving notice  of the limit are erected at such intersection or other  place, or along such part or zone of the highway.  Electronic  speed-detecting devices shall not be used within 500 feet beyond any such  sign in the direction of travel; if so used in violation hereof, evidence  obtained thereby shall be inadmissible in any prosecution for speeding.  However, nothing in this Section prohibits the use of such electronic  speed-detecting devices within 500 feet of a sign within a special  school speed zone indicating such zone, conforming to the requirements of  Section 11-605 of this Act, nor shall evidence obtained thereby be  inadmissible in any prosecution for speeding provided the use of such  device shall apply only to the enforcement of the speed limit in such  special school speed zone.

 (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 11-603)Sec. 11-603. Alteration of limits by Toll Highway Authority.   Whenever the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority  determines, upon the basis of an  engineering and traffic investigation concerning a toll highway under its  jurisdiction, that a maximum speed limit prescribed in Section 11-601 of  this Chapter is greater or less than is reasonable or safe with respect to  conditions found to exist at any place or along any part or zone of such  highway, the Authority shall determine and declare by regulation a  reasonable and safe absolute maximum speed limit at such place or along  such part or zone, and the speed limit shall conform with the maximum speed limit restrictions provided for in Section 11-601 of this Code.  A limit so determined  and declared becomes effective, and suspends the application of the limit  prescribed in Section 11-601 of this Chapter, when (a) the Department  concurs in writing with the Authority's regulation, and (b) appropriate  signs giving notice of the limit are erected at such place or along such  part or zone of the highway.  Electronic speed-detecting devices shall not  be used within 500 feet beyond any such sign in the direction of travel; if  so used in violation hereof, evidence obtained thereby shall be  inadmissible in any prosecution for speeding.

(a) No person shall drive a motor vehicle at such a slow speed as to impede  or block the normal and reasonable movement of traffic except when reduced  speed is necessary for safe operation of his vehicle or in compliance with law.(b) Whenever the Department, The Illinois State Toll Highway Authority,  or a local authority described in Section 11-604 of this Chapter determines,  upon the basis of an engineering and traffic investigation concerning a  highway or street under its jurisdiction that slow vehicle speeds along  any part or zone of such highway or street consistently impede the normal  and reasonable movement of traffic, the Department, the Toll Highway Authority,  or local authority (as appropriate) may determine and declare by proper  regulation or ordinance a minimum speed  limit below which no person shall drive except when necessary for safe operation  of his vehicle or in compliance with law. A limit so determined and declared  becomes effective when appropriate signs giving notice of the limit are  erected along such part or zone of the highway or street.    (Source: P.A. 81-840.)

Upon request of a local school board, the Department or local  authority which has jurisdiction over the roadway in question, shall  determine whether a hazardous situation exists at a particular location and  warrants a no-passing zone.  If the Department or local authority  determines that a no-passing zone is warranted, the school board and the  Department or local authority shall share equally the cost of designating  the no-passing zone by signs and markings.
