The East Troy Electric Railroad crews should be completed with the track improvements today. Next week and part of the following week will be their overhead lines and electrical systems work. For the roadway portion, I can give a more detailed schedule next week, but everything is still on schedule to being the week of June 9th.
Rough Schedule (Weather Dependent)
- May 12 to May 19 – Remove the remaining WIS 20 concrete pavement around the railroad tracks and place aggregates (Completed)
- May 19 to June 9 – East Troy Electric Railroad will replace their crossing (Ongoing)
- June 9 to mid/late July – Curb and Gutter, sidewalk, asphalt paving, pavement marking, signing, and restoration activities.
Traffic:
- Access to Dollar General can be made by taking WIS 20 west across County ES, using the median opening for Shell/McDonalds/Culvers, and going west on the WIS 20 EB lanes.
- Access to Shell/McDonalds/Culverts can be made using WIS 20 west across County ES to the median opening for the left turn like the current configuration. There are other accesses off County ES as well that will stay open.
- Access to the Oak Ridge Cemetery is available by using WIS 20 WB lanes.
- The I-43/WIS 20 interchange will remain open
- County ES will remain open but the right turn lane for County ES SB to WIS 20 WB will close for sidewalk and grading.
