Weekend full freeway closure of I-41 North/South
Construction update from DOT.
Construction is picking up – and Jason Rosell with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation joins FOX6 WakeUp with the details.
Weekend Full Freeway Closure of I-41 North/South
What (54 Hour Closure Map Areas):
- Full closure of I-41 North/South from Burleigh Street to Watertown Plank Road
- Weather dependent, the closure is scheduled for 11 PM Friday, January 14 through 5 AM Monday, January 17
Why (2021.11.19.SA.01 and Existing UPRR Structure) :
- The weekend full closure is the safest and most efficient way to demolish the UPRR bridge over I-41
- We have successfully utilized 54-hour closures in the past and have extensively planned with law enforcement, maintenance, and other stakeholders to minimize impacts
- Will be back next Friday with additional detail
