To be clear, the congestion being lamented is on Randall Road, not I-90-- correct?  I could see the SB-to-EB left turn movement causing a lot of backups.  Is that what's going on?  It looks like ISTHA might have a large blob of ROW on the southwest corner of the interchange...maybe they could stick a single cloverleaf ramp there to improve flow?

There really isn't a lot of ROW there.

Google shows plenty of open land on the south side of I-90.  Definitely enough to fit in a SB to EB loop, going off of the new loop ramp at the I-88 and IL 47 interchange.

It may be open, but ISTHA would have to acquire four parcels there according to Kane County.

Randall Road's just a wee bit busy for that to work.

For WisDot no road is too busy for roundabouts they think they can put them anywhere and hey they will work because after all they are safer because they reduce serious crashes.
