What in the world is going on with I-57? Do you feel safe on that expressway? Concerns about shootings on Chicago-area expressways are on the rise, and the focus is on Interstate 57 on the Far South Side. On Monday night, two men were shot and killed on I-57 in Calumet Park. The gunfire came from another car in the northbound lanes near 123rd Street. Illinois State Police says overall there were fewer shootings on the expressways this year compared to this time last year, but I-57 had more shootings than any other in the area. More and more drivers have elected to take alternate routes.
