May 25, 2012

Meetings being held in Germantown and Wauwatosa

(Green Bay) The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Northeast Region is providing this reminder that public information meetings have been scheduled in Germantown and Wauwatosa to discuss the conversion of US 41 from Milwaukee to Green Bay to an Interstate highway.  People who travel, live or do business along the US 41 corridor are encouraged to attend, learn more about the planning study and provide comments and suggestions.

Each public meeting will run from 5 to 6:30 p.m., with a brief presentation at 5:15 p.m., followed by an open house format where WisDOT representatives will be available to discuss the project on an individual basis. The public information meeting dates and locations are:

• Wednesday, May 30, at the Germantown Public Library
  N112 W16957 Mequon Road, Germantown (Meeting Room)
• Thursday, May 31, at the Wauwatosa Public Library
  7635 West North Avenue, Wauwatosa (Firefly room)
  

The project schedule calls for WisDOT to begin installing Interstate shields along the route by fall 2014. A final Interstate route number has not been designated.

Persons who are unable to attend the meetings can provide comments by contacting WisDOT Project Manager Tammy Rabe at 944 Vanderperren Way, Green Bay, WI 54304; (920) 492-5661 or by email at tammy.rabe@dot.wi.gov.
