The route ran from Route 130 in Boos to Sainte Marie, a distance of 5miles.[4] Initially, IL 130A used to be signed as IL 130 but it only acted like a spur route to Sainte Marie. IL 130A replaced a portion of that in 1931. It eventually got decommissioned in 1942.[5] The route is now a local road known as both 600th Avenue and Embarras Street.
