History
SBI Route 123 was what Illinois 123 is now, plus a road from Ashland south to Alexander at Interstate 72/U.S. Route 36. In 1999, Illinois 123 was truncated on its southern end to Illinois 125. In October 2003, Illinois 123 was extended east to Williamsville, replacing some of Illinois Route 124 in the process as well as all of Sangamon County Route 11.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“... that there is no other way,
That the history of creation proceeds according to
Stringent laws, and that things
Do get done in this way, but never the things
We set out to accomplish and wanted so desperately
To see come into being.”

“This above all makes history useful and desirable: it unfolds before our eyes a glorious record of exemplary actions.”
