Fifth Street Road Project

The City of Lincoln, State of Illinois, and County of Logan have partnered to redevelop Fifth Street Road west of Lincoln Parkway (Old Route 66) to the Interstate overpass. Not only will this improve the roadway itself, but was to correct water drainage along the roadway itself from neighboring developments.

Do you have an addiction to a drug or alcohol? Do you know someone that has an addiction and needs treatment? Please contact one of the programs below to get started on rehabilitation.

If you have unused medication at home, you can bring it to the Lincoln Police Department and provide it to a police officer. This is an anonymous program and you will not be charged with a crime for bringing any illegal narcotic to the police department.

We want our residents to feel safe in their homes and when you have unused prescription medication, specially a opioid based pain reliever, you are susceptible to break in. Those addicted to an opioid will seek out the medications to try to stay well. Treatment is the only cure to an addiction and it takes time.
