Drivers take note: Weekend events expected to cause delays on I-43 and US 41

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is informing travelers of potentially serious weekend delays on I-43 in Milwaukee and Ozaukee Counties and on US 41 in Washington County.

In addition to usual summer travel, thousands of motorists will be heading to Green Bay for Packers Family Night on Saturday and to Oshkosh for EAA AirVenture which runs all weekend. Traffic is anticipated to be heaviest Friday afternoon and evening on northbound routes and Sunday on southbound routes.



      Portable message signs will be found along I-43, directing drivers to the alternate route. The recommended alternate route follows WIS 57 NB to WIS 23 eastbound, back to I-43.

      Motorists are urged to pay close attention to message boards and traffic control signs. Please check 511wi.gov for-up to-date information.
