The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Northwest Region in Eau Claire is announcing a public information meeting to discuss the proposed pavement replacement of I-94 near the city of Eau Claire from WIS 37 to US 53 in Eau Claire County.

The proposed improvements to I-94 include new concrete pavement, new bridges over the east Lowes Creek crossing, wider eastbound bridges over WIS 37 and County F for traffic maintenance, and longer ramps at WIS 37 and WIS 93. The WIS 37 pavement beneath I-94 and the pavement on the ramps at WIS 37 and WIS 93 will also be replaced. Construction is currently scheduled to begin in the summer of 2013 and be completed in the fall of 2014.
