The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) Northeast Region is holding a public information meeting to provide an update on the latest design and construction plans for the Lineville Road interchange in Brown County. The open house meeting is scheduled from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, October 17 at the US 41 Brown County Project Office, 1940 W. Mason Street, Green Bay.

Reconstruction of the US 41/Lineville Road interchange is scheduled to begin in summer 2013 and will be completed by spring 2015. Improvements will include:
