Public meeting to discuss highway project

A public involvement meeting for the reconstruction of state Highway 22 between 13th Street and state Highway 156/Green Tree Road in Clintonville will take place from 5-7 p.m. Dec. 11 at the Clintonville Community Center, 30 S. Main St. A brief presentation is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. followed by an open house format by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. According to the DOT, the pavement on North Main Street, part of Highway 22, has reached the end of its service life. The proposed project will reconstruct the roadway. There will be modifications to the intersection of Main Street and Green Tree Road. Additonal improvements include replacing curb and gutter, sidewalks, storm sewer and street lighting. During construction, the city of Clintonville plans to replace the city water main and sanitary sewer systems. The objective of the meeting is to provide residents with updated information regarding proposed improvements, right of way needs, and acquisitions. The DOT is also seeking input and feedback on proposed traffic management strategies during construction. Construction of this section of Main Street is currently scheduled for 2017, but may occur as early as 2016. The planned improvements require that the highway be closed during construction. During the closure, traffic will be detoured via Seventh Street, North Lyons Street, East 12th Street, SSGT Warren Hansen Drive and Highway 156. Anyone with questions, comments or suggestions can attend the meeting. For those who cannot attend but would like to comment on the project, contact Roxann Cuty at 715-421-8081 or by email at Roxann.Cutydot.wi.gov.
