The Robert Kingery Expressway, formerly called the Tri-State Highway, is a three-mile-long (5 km), eight-lane freeway in northeastern Illinois. It carries Interstates 80 and 94 from the Illinois/Indiana border at the Borman Expressway west to Illinois Route 394, Interstate 294 (the Tri-State Tollway), and the southern end of the Bishop Ford Freeway (where Interstate 94 turns north to downtown Chicago). It also carries U.S. Route 6 west from the Indiana state line to the U.S. 6 exit with Illinois Route 83 (Torrence Avenue).
The Kingery Expressway begins at an interchange with the Tri-State Tollway to the west, the Bishop Ford Freeway to the north, and Illinois Route 394 to the south. From here, the expressway heads east through Lansing. The highway then reaches its only exit, a junction with Illinois Route 83 and U.S. Route 6; east of here, US 6 becomes concurrent with the expressway. Past the exit, the highway continues east; it briefly curves east-southeast before crossing into Indiana and becoming the Borman Expressway.
