Illinois Route 48 (IL 48) is a 85.38-mile-long (137.41 km) north–southstate highway with its southern terminus at I-55 and IL 127 in Raymond and its northern terminus at IL 54 east of Clinton.

IL 48 travels southwest to northeast from I-55 to east of Clinton. It is an undivided surface street for its entire length. It also serves the cities of Raymond, Harvel, Taylorville, and Decatur.

SBI Route 48 traveled from Onarga to Raymond via the current IL 48 and IL 54. The portion from DeWitt to Onarga became U.S. Route 54 (US 54) in 1942, but in 1972 US 54 was pulled back to its current terminus in Pittsfield, and IL 54 was implemented from Springfield to Onarga.
