Work on state Highway 47, from the Outagamie County line to state Highway 29 in the Town of Lessor, Bonduel and Town of Hartland is scheduled to begin April 10.
Northeast Asphalt Inc. is the prime contractor for the $3.2 million project. Crews will resurface the highway, upgrade guardrails at Shady Road intersections, install concrete approach slabs at existing bridge structure over the East Branch Shioc River, improve ride quality above settled culverts, install centerline rumble strips and replace existing pavement markings along the entire project length.
During construction, Highway 47 will be open to traffic. Motorists may encounter single-lane closures with flagging operations. Highway 47 will be reduced to a single lane with temporary traffic signals for approximately two weeks at the Highway 47 and County Road S intersection for bridge approach work.
Construction is scheduled for completion by July. The schedule is dependent on favorable weather conditions and construction progress.
Federal transportation funds will pay for 80% while state transportation funds will pay for 20% of the project.
