441 work starts Saturday

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation Northeast Regional Office in Green Bay is announcing that work is scheduled to begin Saturday, Aug. 16 on a project providing repairs at various locations on Wisconsin 441, the Tri-County Freeway, in Outagamie County.

The project involves concrete pavement repairs, shoulder repairs, and expansion joint replacement on the Fox River bridge. Epoxy pavement marking and refacing roadway signs are part of this project.

Wisconsin 441 will remain open to traffic during the project. The Fox River Bridge will be restricted to one lane in each direction between Saturday at 6 a.m. and Friday, Aug. 29 at 6 p.m. Other lane and ramp closures will be restricted from 6 p.m to 6 a.m. Some off-peak daytime closures may occur. Consecutive ramp closures will not occur the same night. Changeable message boards will announce closures in advance.

Project cost is estimated at $1.9 million and is scheduled for completion by the end of September for repair work and November for marking and signing.
