WIS 26 corridor - Expansion project - Segment 3, Milton to Fort Atkinson

Project overview

Segment 3 consists of constructing a WIS 26 bypass around the east side of the city of Milton on new alignment from Town Line Road to north of County N. From there, WIS 26 will be reconstructed along the existing highway corridor to the south interchange into the city of Fort Atkinson.

The new roadway will extend 10 miles with two lanes in each direction with a grass median. No access will be allowed in areas where the roadway is on new alignment except at interchanges located at WIS 59 and County N.

Bridges will be constructed at Town Line, Storrs Lake and Bowers Lake roads, Whitetail Lane, and possibly one other location (in the city of Milton area) to provide through travel under or over WIS 26.

Intersection and driveway access will be allowed where the highway is constructed on existing alignment. However, there will be locations where intersection and driveway movements will be limited and where driveway accesses will be combined or moved to a frontage road.

The section of existing WIS 26 through the city of Milton will be jurisdictionally transferred to local government when the new bypass is opened to traffic.

Schedule

Real estate acquisition is scheduled to start in 2009.

Construction of this segment is scheduled for 2012 through 2014. The estimated construction cost is $44 million (in 2008 dollars).
