Posted

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is seeking public input on proposed improvements along US Highway 63 from the Minnesota/Wisconsin state line to US Highway 10 west of Ellsworth in Pierce County.

A presentation and materials are available to view on the project website at https://wisconsindot. gov/Pages/projects/by-region/nw/ us63pc/default.aspx. Comments are due by Friday, March 10 by:

• Email: [email protected]

• Mail: Wisconsin Department of Transportation 2101 Wright St. Madison, WI 53704 Attn.: Kevin Drunasky The project will resurface 11.2 miles of US Highway 63. Additional improvements include adding rumble strips, adjusting guardrails and completing culvert maintenance.

During construction, US Highway 63 will remain open to traffic, but motorists will encounter single-lane closures controlled by flagging. Access to local residences and businesses will be maintained.

Construction is currently scheduled for 2026, but the project could be advanced to 2025 if funding becomes available.
