-The Wisconsin Department of Transportation has provided a weekly update on construction projects in our area.Construction related traffic impacts are subject to change and dependent on favorable weather patterns. Work is being done on Highway 29 between Boyd and Abbotsford here in Clark County. Crews will be removing concrete pavement cracking and fatigue locations replacing them with new concrete slabs. Crews will also mill and overlay the eastbound and westbound shoulders on WIS 29 along with replacing bridge wing walls on three bridges throughout the project limits. Motorists can expect to encounter one lane in each direction on WIS 29 between Copenhaven Avenue and the off ramp to County X and between County O and Fairground Avenue. Speed will be reduced from 65 MPH to 55 MPH within construction zones. The work is expected to continue until October and has a cost of $6.8 million.
Also, the work on Highway 98, or Main Street, in the City of Loyal continues. This includes South and Main Streets from Helm Street to Elm Drive. Reconstruction of WIS 98 includes water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, concrete pavement, and decorative street lights. The road is closed at the Elm Drive intersection. Traffic will be detoured via County K, County H, and County Y. The project is expected to last until November and the cost is $5.1 million.
