The meeting will be held at the WisDOT Northeast Regional Office, 944 Vanderperren Way, Green Bay, Thursday, May 29 from 5 to 7:30 p.m. This meeting will be held in an open-house format with short presentations at 5:15 p.m. and again at 6:45 p.m.
This project is scheduled to begin this fall. WisDOT staff will provide information regarding the project’s scope, schedule, and traffic impacts.
Plans call for resurfacing 172 between U.S. 41 and Interstate 43 beginning in September and ending in September 2010. The project includes resurfacing 172 lanes and ramps, redecking of the Fox River bridge, replacement of the Oneida Street bridges, construction of exit-only lanes for the Pilgrim Way and Vanderperren Way exits, and local roadway work.
There will be impacts to the traveling public throughout the project. These impacts will be especially significant from February to August of 2009 and 2010, when 172 will be reduced to one eastbound lane and two westbound lanes from 41 to Webster Avenue. Between Webster Avenue and I–43, 172 will be reduced to one lane in each direction for a portion of the construction project. Oneida Street will be closed at 172 from February to mid-July of 2009 and 2010 for replacement of the 172 bridges over Oneida Street. Lane and ramp closures, both long term and short term, are anticipated during construction.
