Resurfacing Planned for Grant Park, Mill Road

Milwaukee County is going to make your drive through Grant Park a little smoother in 2010.

The county plans to resurface a stretch of the park’s main road near the north entrance next spring, as well the stretch of Mill Road from Milwaukee Avenue to Hawthorne venue, according to Milwaukee County Supervisor Pat Jursik.

It’s about time, and if you’ve driven through Grant Park recently, you know what I’m talking about. There are stretches that are literally crumbling, an unfortunate example of the county’s mounting deferred maintenance concerns.

Check out a map showing the stretches in question. The roads in blue are the ones being addressed in 2010.
