Weekly News Blast: It looks like spring may be going to spring soon! Either way you’ll need to remember to “spring ahead” one hour on your clocks early this Sunday. Perhaps this is a good time to acknowledge our snowplow operators this winter: Jerry Reinwand, Jim Yetter, Brian Kuhlmann, and Leo Krueger. They did a nice job of keeping our roads clear of ice and snow as best they could. Wood County Highway Department assisted on Lake Road from 100th to CTH U (per request of Safeway bus company transporting our children). That 2-mile stretch gets remarkably icy each year and is traversed upwards of 12 times per day by the bus company! You’ve probably all noticed quite a bit of brushing and clearing along our road rights of way this winter. That work is being done by Dominic DeVito, Brian Kuhlmann, Leo Krueger, and Garry Saeger. They need a shout-out also! Our monthly Town Board meeting will be held on Wednesday March 11 beginning at 6:00 pm. You are all welcome to attend. Sharon

Culvert Improvements on County Trunk Highway WW over Fourmile Creek

The Portage County Highway Department, in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Transporation (WisDOT), are in the process of developing plans to improve the existing culvert on County Trunk Highway WW over Fourmile Creek. A project location Map is attached for your reference.

As part of the project development process, they are gathering input on the proposed project and construction activities. The attached project information package provides details on the existing culvert, proposed improvements, traffic impacts, and project schedule. 

Please review and submit any questions, comments, or concerns that may assist with the development of this project by January 5th, 2024. If you have questions of concerns that may require an in-depth conversation, please contact Vincent DiFrances at 262-683-8525 or vinced@jt-engineering.com.

 

Notes from Supervisor Provost:

The boxed area in the Aerial of CTH WW Bridge shows the part of the road that will be replaced (W330’ and E250’).

2024 design and 2025 build. Everything is preliminary at this point so changes can be expected.

Estimated 3 month road closure

Due to trout stream required time-out periods, this would have to start in June of 2025.

Water quality will be protected by standard BMP’s used for bridge replacements

DATCP will also be involved in the review due to being in the jurisdiction of the Portage County Drainage District
