Heading West? Take Note of Lane Closures on I-43

Ongoing bridge work will close lanes over the next few weeks; be aware if you're heading toward Big Bend or Mukwonago

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WISDot) announced that a bridge deck pour is ongoing on the Edgewood Bridge, about five miles west of Racine Avenue.

The work will require that the median and one lane of traffic remain closed for a 24 hour period according to WisDOT. There will be message boards up alerting motorists that the lane will be closed.  

The work will occur on other bridges as well between WIS 164 and WIS 83, however times and dates are condition dependent, and WisDOT did not specify exact dates. It is expected that five more similar closures will take place prior to the completion of the project later this year.
