The first macadamized road ever constructed in the state was built from Belleville to St. Louis in 1846.

The company w-as proud of its rock road — but American Bottoms farmers took the alternate dirt road (Missouri Avenue) to avoid toll charges. The Rock Road is still the county's "Main S...treet, " called West Main in Belleville, State Street below the bluffs. Over 150 years ago, Illinois citizens waited along its length for the Washington post to learn whether the President's State of the Union message offered plans for opening of the West.
