Interstate 90 and Interstate 94 East

Interstate 90 and Interstate 94  East approaching the Express/Local split. The brown sign on the right post of the sign bridge indicates that U.S. Cellular Field can be accessed from the next three exits. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
After much warning, Interstate 90 and Interstate 94 splits into the Express/Local setup. For some reason, I took the local lanes. I guess I did so I could get better pictures of the exits. (Photo taken 5/21/03)

Interstate 90 East
Since the Skyway is not Interstate-standard, the highway is signed "TO Interstate 90." Such as seen here just east of Interstate 94. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
Interstate 90 East approaching Skyway Toll Plaza - 1 mile. Construction was in progress along almost the entire Skyway the day I was there. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
Interstate 90 East approaching Skyway Toll Plaza - 1/2 mile. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
"Stop Ahead Pay Toll" sign as the highway approaches the toll plaza. The sign gantries on the Skyway are in this style, much like those found in Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
Chicago Skyway Toll Plaza on "TO" Interstate 90 East. A $2 toll is paid for 2-axle vehicles. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
The highest point on the Skyway is at the top of this bridge. Moveable barriers were in place on this part of the highway. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
View from the top of the bridge. Lake Michigan is seen to the left. Otherwise, there isn't much to look at unless you like industrial areas and power lines. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
The only eastbound exit on the Skyway is at the eastern end for U.S. 12/20/41/Indianapolis Blvd./106th Street. The highway enters the state of Indiana after crossing the federal highways and becomes Interstate 90 once again, without the "TO" banner attached. (Photo taken 5/21/03)
