STH 33 RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT - UPDATE 

Construction baricadeAs the construction season winds down in 2011, the Hwy 33 project has made significant progress despite some setbacks due to weather.  Most of the road work has been completed for the new east bound lanes and will serve both east and west bound movements through the winter. The final layer of asphalt for this portion will be done next year as part of the overall project completion.  There are limited underground utility relocations that still need to be done, but all the overhead lines have now been buried.  Likewise, most of the storm sewer work has been completed.  All intersections will be paved before the onset of winter so there will be no gravel driving surfaces.  The Foster Drive and I43 ramps will continue to be signalized through the completion of the project, while the Market Street and Northwoods Road intersections will be 4-way stop condition until the roundabouts are constructed in 2012.  Left turns from Plaza Drive onto Hwy. 33 are no longer allowed.  The WisDOT is still planning on opening at least the south leg of the CTH LL intersection this year.  The current plan is to have all major construction completed by early to mid-summer 2012. The continuing patience and understanding of the motoring public is appreciated. 

 

Remember to slow down and watch for construction equipment and personnel when driving through the project limits.  The contractor and WisDOT are making every effort to ensure a timely schedule.
