March 6, 2013

Motorists advised to plan ahead, allow more travel time to avoid delays

Crews plan to close the northbound on-ramp to I-39/US 51 from Business 51 in Rothschild on Monday, March 18.

The closure is necessary for crews to reconstruct the I-39/US 51 southbound bridge over Business 51. The ramp will remain closed until late August 2013. The schedule is subject to change based on weather conditions and construction status.

During the closure, traffic will be detoured via Business 51 and WIS 29. Motorists are advised to plan ahead and allow more travel time to avoid delays.
