The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is conducting a public information meeting to discuss the proposed reconstruction of WIS 153 in the village of Elderon.

The meeting is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, September 12, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Elderon Village Hall, 9187 State Road 153. A brief presentation is scheduled to begin at 5:15 p.m. The remainder of the meeting will follow an informal open house format.

The reconstruction of WIS 153 in Elderon is currently scheduled to begin in July 2013.
