Actually, the East-West Tollway was built to Dixon.. and then an access connector was built to U.S. Route 30 EAST of Sterling, IL (that exit is still there).
The second phase was construction of a southern by-pass of Sterling/Rock Falls - that also crossed the Rock River. The road terminated here for a few years, and old state route 2 provided a connector to U.S. Route 30 on the WEST side of Rock Falls/Sterling.
The last section is not tollway - but state funded from this intersection west of Rock Falls/Sterling to Interstate 80. An interesting tale of poor Illinois highway construction (and numerous legal proceedings). This 35 mile section of the concrete road had to be completely rebuilt (down to new roadbed and proper drainage) over the past 7 years.
